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

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

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:

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 |

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]

A friend of mine is running Samba (samba-2.0.3-8) on a couple RedHat Linux 6.0 machines. He is sharing files bilaterally at work with a WinNT machine and at home with a Win9x machine. In both places, he is getting a large number of SMB error messages. I'm not sure whether these are from the smbfs (smbmount) or from the Windoze machines accessing the Linux drives, though I suspect the

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

Hi All: When I use samfs, sometimes I got the following messages, Mr. Google says this is because the windows 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

Hello, I have a problem, I'm mounting a ntfs directory shared with w2k.

Hi all I'm using Samba version 3.0623 on my rhel3 with kernel 2.4.21 I mounted a windows partition with the command "smbmount". Now I have the problem, that I cannot copying files which are larger than 2GB. The cp command starts and everything works fine until the 2GB are reached. Then the bash gives me the error: "The maximum file size is exceeded" the

I earlier this week upgraded from Debian woody to sarge on a machine that does a nightly backup to another machine via a samba share. Since then I have had some issues with accessing that share with I believe are a result of the upgrade. I upgraded the kernel at the same time to 2.4.27-1-686 #1 via apt-get, which might be the related to the problem. Smbfs is version 3.0.6-3

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, I'm using samba-2.0.6-19991110 on Redhat 6.1 in order to mount a NT-filesystem. The mount command is: smbmount //ISDN/CoTel /mnt/NT-Bank/ -o username=serv,password=serv,workgroup=WORK,uid=root,gid=users,ro everything works fine, except that after one or two days the mount disappears. A simple 'ls /mnt/NT-Bank/MCCWIN' results in 'Input/output error'. In

I'm running Linux 2.1.130 on an AXP, with Samba 2.0 beta 2. I have smbfs enabled in the kernel with Win 95 bug fixes enabled but I'm not running smbd. The server containing the share is an HP running Samba 1.9.16p11. I mount the share with smbmount //hpname/share -c 'mount /home/me/mydir' All is well for a while (~1 hour), but then I get kernel: smb_get_length: recv error = 5

Hello, I am running Samba-2.2.0alpha-2 on a OpenLinux 2.3 (Caldera) system, and I was wondering if this error message is NORMAL behavior for a NT Server share mounted with the following command: //inet_server_1/C /mnt/server1 -o username=xxxxxxxx,password=xxxxxx,ip=x.x.x.2 here is what is in /var/log/messages: Mar 15 09:51:59 htmlodds kernel: smb_trans2_request: result=-32, setting invalid

Hi - My messages may not be reaching this list. Would someone at least confirm receipt of this message even if you have no suggestions/ comments re its content? I have sent several messages concerning mount.smbfs and I guess no one is using smbfs to mount a Windows machine -or- no one has encountered my problem. To recap the problem and give a solution: [problem] mount.smbfs is not working on
