Hi, About 10 days ago, I started looking at the "getpeername failed. Error was Transport endpoint is not connected" message appearing on our logs. This message was being produced very frequently during the day and somewhat less frequently at night. Anyone can help me to fix it ?? Here're message info ! Our configuration is samba 3.0.10a Our network has about 60 XP Pro PC's and 100 w2k PC's.
