Hello, I have a problem, I'm mounting a ntfs directory shared with w2k. I made "cd" to the mounted directory, I excute tar ... and the limit is 2Gb, and I receive the error: Jul 20 10:04:30 mail kernel: smb_get_length: recv error = 512 Jul 20 10:04:30 mail kernel: smb_request: result -512, setting invalid Jul 20 10:04:30 mail kernel: smb_retry: caught signal Jul 20 10:04:30 mail kernel: smb_retry: caught signal S.O.: RHEL 3 samba: 3.0.7-1.3E.1 I'll appreciate any help. Alberto.

...client use the share, and the connection is "reconnected"! Does it right? How to ward off the error? Is there any potential problem if I ignore it? My actions are smbmount and smbumount some shares. Sometimes some shares are smbumount before they mounted (thus cause a smbumount fail). smb_get_length: recv error = 5 smb_request: result -5, setting invalid smb_retry: successful, new pid=1172, generation=2 smb_get_length: recv error = 5 smb_request: result -5, setting invalid smb_retry: successful, new pid=1195, generation=2 Thanks for your help.
