[Samba] minor BUG? re: smbstatus, 'rlimit max'=xxx -> msg=files on client; not server.
When I run smbstatus, I have the impression it's giving me the status of the smb server. But the first thing that pops when I run it was: rlimit_max: rlimit_max(1024) below minimum Windows limit (16384) But this isn't really the case -- it's telling me my rlimit_max on the linux-client I am running smbstatus on, not what 'rlimit max' is set to for the server. Had me confused for a bit -- as my startup scripts have the open file params set to 32K for the hard limit and 16K for the soft limit for smb -- and didn't know why it wasn't reading that... Until I started playing around with the limit in my shell where I was running smbstatus....then I realized it was telling me the shell's limit -- not the samba server's limit -- Is this desired behavior? It seems a bit confusing. Linda (sw version 3.5.2).
