Hi, I am not sure if this has been fixed already or not but I wasn't able to find any mention of it. The error I am getting is: ==============================================================[2007/04/12 22:41:00, 0, effective(0, 0), real(0, 0)] lib/fault.c:fault_report(37) INTERNAL ERROR: Signal 11 in pid 18617 (3.0.10-1.4E.9) Please read the appendix Bugs of the Samba HOWTO collection [2007/04/12 22:41:01, 0, effective(0, 0), real(0, 0)] lib/fault.c:fault_report(39) ==============================================================[2007/04/12 22:41:01, 0, effective(0, 0), real(0, 0)] lib/util.c:smb_panic2(1504) PANIC: internal error [2007/04/12 22:41:01, 0, effective(0, 0), real(0, 0)] lib/util.c:smb_panic2(1512) BACKTRACE: 26 stack frames: #0 smbd(smb_panic2+0x8a) [0xceb290] #1 smbd(smb_panic+0x19) [0xceb4bc] #2 smbd [0xcd7c9f] #3 /lib/tls/libc.so.6 [0x448898] #4 /lib/tls/libc.so.6 [0x5180f4] #5 /lib/tls/libc.so.6 [0x518452] #6 /lib/tls/libc.so.6(getpwnam_r+0x5a) [0x4aaa8a] #7 /lib/tls/libc.so.6(getpwnam+0x91) [0x4aa5b1] #8 smbd(sys_getpwnam+0x1d) [0xcda970] #9 smbd(getpwnam_alloc+0x1d) [0xcdec80] #10 smbd(make_server_info_sam+0x52) [0xd2d02a] #11 smbd [0xd26493] #12 smbd [0xd2710a] #13 smbd [0xd24349] #14 smbd [0xd2e2ee] #15 smbd [0xc0b946] #16 smbd(ntlmssp_update+0x143) [0xc0ae1a] #17 smbd(auth_ntlmssp_update+0x44) [0xd2e666] #18 smbd [0xbac701] #19 smbd(reply_sesssetup_and_X+0x845) [0xbade12] #20 smbd [0xbd44f2] #21 smbd(process_smb+0x19b) [0xbd492c] #22 smbd(smbd_process+0x15f) [0xbd5654] #23 smbd(main+0x875) [0xd67c37] #24 /lib/tls/libc.so.6(__libc_start_main+0xd3) [0x435de3] #25 smbd [0xb74281] Our setup is samba-3.0.10-1.4E.9 with ldap backend for (groups/users). The server is a rhel4 ES Update 4 box. I am thinking this bug might be already fixed in a later release.
