[Samba] SMBFS - Input/Output Errors on Save - Kernel => 2.6.8
I have a Debian (Unstable) workstation which accesses Samba shared directories on a Mitel Server via smbfs mounts. All worked well up to an incuding kernel 2.6.7. After upgrading to 2.6.9 I found that trying to save a file to the share in Open Office resulted in an input/output error. I found this also extends to other programs. Subsequent experimentation reveals that the problem commences with Kernel 2.6.8 and extends to 2.6.9. The same server setup that works with 2.6.7 is broken with 2.6.8 and 2.6.9. I've gone back to running 2.6.7 but would like to update when the problem is solved. Does anyone have any idea of what changes to the Kernel might have caused the problem, and how it might be fixed? regards, Darryl
