samba - Oct 2007 - tdb/tdbutil.c:tdb_chainlock_with_timeout_internal (rev_2)

I've seen more and more occurrences of the following error (other people
have different password servers) on the web.

 

I submitted this question before, but it was never resolved.  I've even
tried changing the underlying file system (from clustered vxfs to ext3)
and I still see the error.

 

Error:

 

[2007/10/17 08:29:33, 0]
tdb/tdbutil.c:tdb_chainlock_with_timeout_internal(82)

  tdb_chainlock_with_timeout_internal: alarm (10) timed out for key
SJMEMDC15 in tdb /usr/local/samba-3.0.23a/private/secrets.tdb

 

 

I've been seeing this error on and off for well over 1 year.  

 

What happens is that many smb clients (as shown on the client log files)
start throwing this error.  They cannot reach the smb server.  I restart
the server and everything is fine for days or weeks until it starts over
again.

 

I'm running:

 

# /usr/local/samba/sbin/smbd -V

Version 3.0.23a

What is your smb.conf like? Also, what do you mean by "other people have 
different password servers"? Do you mean people of the same network? If
yes,
are these other password servers also running Samba?

Some more information would be useful for sure :p

What is SJMEMDC15?  The name of your domain?  or DC?  Sounds like
you are not running Winbind.  If not, then running winbindd should
reduce contention on access to the secrets.tdb file.
