Hi,
We are having difficulty connecting to a samba server using windows XP pro.
Plain text is enabled and we can search for the server on the network, but
as soon as we map a drive to it, it asks for a username and password. We
enter this and then it asks for a password relating to a guest account.
Can anyone help me with why it defaults to the guest account?
Regards
Phil

The kernel should log the oops in /var/log/messages.

We can't be blamed for a kernel oops. If a user space app
can cause the kernel to die, then that's a kernel bug.
I would start pursuing this with RedHat (if you have support),
or logging it in bugzilla.redhat.com.
cheers, jerry
