similar to: smbmount disappears

Hello everyone. I have two linux servers* that each have four directories mounted as SMBFS shares from a Windows 2000 Server. For the most part, this set-up is working great, however, there have been occasional hiccups. Every so often, one of the servers, LINUX-ONE, logs a couple of Samba-related errors. The following is an example: Jun 30 06:30:45 mx-two kernel: smb_trans2_request:

Found these messages in /var/log/dmesg on a Redhat 7.1 machine running Samba 2.2.2 accessing a Win 2000 share. Actually, there are a bunch of tasks accessing the same share, complete with file locking, etc. Any docs on what that error code means? ...Thanks, ...Kenneth smb_get_length: recv error = 113 smb_trans2_request: result=-113, setting invalid smb_file_write: syndex/csafe.log validation

Dear Sirs: I wish to report my experience with the package. I have compiled and used Samba 2.0.7pre 2, pre3, and pre4. I have not had any trouble connecting to Samba's shares (from an NT client), but I would like to report a problem with SMBFS and SMBMOUNT. NT4, SP5 shares mounted into the filespace of the Linux box can disconnect over time with two possible outcomes. The activity is

I use smbmount to mount a number of NT shares from around a global network in order to sync from a master distribution which resides in linux. Specifically... uklnxsrv$ smbmount //NTSRV/share -c 'mount /tmp/temporary_mount -u 502 -g 510' -U guest%guest_passwd Frequently it works well, but from time to time the mounted NT share, for lack of a better word gets corrupted. Here are the

I just had the unpleasant experience of crashing a production server _twice_ when trying to access a file share. The server is 64-bit Windows 2003 on an itanium3. My box is RedHat Linux 8.0 with Samba 3.0.0-2. Here's some messages from syslog: Mar 19 09:13:58 hedron automount[1037]: attempting to mount entry /dborg/POS Mar 19 09:13:58 hedron mount.smbfs[23153]: [2004/03/19 09:13:58, 0]

Dear all, I use smbmount on a script. The package used is (SuSe 7.2): "... root@gprod:~ > which smbmount /usr/bin/smbmount root@gprod:~ > rpm -qf /usr/bin/smbmount smbclnt-2.2.0-15 root@gprod:~ > ls -l /usr/bin/smbmount -rwsr-sr-t 1 root root 497224 May 12 2001 /usr/bin/smbmount root@gprod:~ > ..." This script runs on crontab each 20 minutes. It uses the

Samba mount (from one of our build scripts). We decided to upgrade to RedHat 7.2 (which uses a newer version of Samba -- 2.1.1b IIRC), maybe that fixes the problem. However, I decided to submit this bug report, in the hope that it may help kill some bugs. (Remember -- the only good bug, is a dead bug :)) So, here is the dmesg output: Linux version 2.2.16-22enterprise

Why do I keep getting these messages? (from /var/log/messages) I use RedHat 7.1 and have a coupple of shares on the machine on a bizzy samba network.

Hi guys, I hope I've reached the correct mailinglist. I'm experiencing a problem with smbfs. You can mount shares, but after a while, the connection is broken and all sorts of strange stuff happens. I've got a share called /mnt/ntshare which remotely mounts an NT host: [arnow@foo /mnt]$ ls ls: ntshare: Input/output error cdrom/ floppy/ [arnow@foo /mnt]$ [arnow@foo /mnt]$ dmesg |

Greetings, About 2 months ago, we decided to backup our Oracle test servers via samba rather than nfs -- the backups were just taking too long using nfs. No problem mounting the remote file share to the server and the backup took about one-third of the time. Yep, worked good...and still continues to out perform nfs hands down. Problem is - I'm receiving errors on both of the test servers.

Hi, I have a samba +ldap PDC running on mandrake 10.0 the server is running great except for the error mesage in the kernel log, whic I think causes the system to crash after some time, how much time is needed is unknown, but it seems to get faster with increasing user, as this was a first attempt I first tried it with only less than 10 users, and it the server would go on for more than 3

Hi all, I've read everywhere I could on this issue and it seems no one has yet to find a solution. It seems I have a Samba issue as is being shown in dmesg and /var/log/messages: Dmesg: smb_lookup: find //logs failed, error=-5 /var/log/messages: Jun 12 17:12:56 esgstdev01 kernel: smb_request: result -104, setting invalid Jun 12 17:12:56 esgstdev01 mount.smbfs[1038]:

Hi! We're experiencing a really weird problem with our linux smb client. We map four directories to a NT4-share from our linux-box (2.2.12). The problem is that the mount goes through just fine with no complaints and I can see the files on that share, but, I can't see new files created with ls on the nt4-server on the linuxbox but if I run more <filename> I can see the contents of

Hi Samba-Team, I have a Linux Workstation (Dual Processor Xeon, 800GByte RAID 10, Gigabit Ethernet). There is a Samba Server (2.2.0) on it and there is a mounted Share from an NT-PC (mount -t smbfs -o username=xxx,password=xxx //xxx/mount /home/mnt). In the file /var/log/messages I have the following error Messages : smb_trans2_request: result=-104, setting invalid smb_lookup: find //xxx

Hi there. I'm having a very odd problem with samba. I have a Mandrake 7.2 linux distro, though I've compiled a 2.4.2 kernel for it (with samba support compiled in - not a module), and I've also compiled Samba 2.0.7. When I mount shares from my win98 machines, if I try to list a large directory or open a large file, the terminal freezes. I'm able to log in another, but if I

First I will apologize for posting my patch here if this is not the correct place to post a patch. I know that smbfs is being removed, but we still use it and need it to work. We have a patch to contribute back to the smbfs in the 2.6 kernel. I have noticed multiply posts on this issue and we have basically patch the smbiod.c to fix the reconnect bug in 2.6 Something we did for our patch is

I don't know who this problem belongs to, samba or Linux, but it's a common one, judging by the responses in my INBOX to a previous post. Plus, it's a fairly serious one; many applications require smb shares to be mounted continuously and without interruption. It's been a recurring problem which seems to have been pushed off to the side as not important, even though it's a
