samba - Mar 2009 - Log entries with truncated service names

Hello all

I am running Samba 3.2.8 over CentOS 5.2, with a LDAP back end.

On some days, not all, strange entries appear in the Samba logs. I get 
entries like this:


[2009/03/18 18:35:09,  0] smbd/service.c:make_connection(1366)
  aurora (192.168.0.22) couldn't find service netlogo


The real name of the service is of course "netlogon".

Another example for the share named "comercial":


[2009/03/13 09:48:00,  0] smbd/service.c:make_connection(1366)
  ana (192.168.0.12) couldn't find service comercia


And so on. The name of the service appears truncated by ONE character, 
the last one.

There is one less frequent exception to this rule:


[2009/03/18 14:51:47,  0] smbd/service.c:make_connection(1366)
  antonia (192.168.0.21) couldn't find service


Here the service name does not appear at all. Al I get is one space 
after the word "service".

Does anyone here know why this happens?


Also, the logs get filled with:


[<date><time>,  0] smbd/trans2.c:call_trans2qfsinfo(2568)
 call_trans2qfsinfo: not an allowed info level (0x102) on IPC$.


This goes to several hundreds of kilobytes in just a few days:

What does this mean? I asked about this twice here but I didn't get an 
answer. I searched in Google and I got nothing.

I would appreciate any help with these issues.
Thank you.

Can you get us a network trace and a debug level 10 log of
this?

Information on how to create network traces can be found
under
