Hello All, I had a problem with 2.0.3 on RH6.0 (linux) where a mount of an NT server share on my linux machine would mysteriously die after a period of time (a long time? not being used? don't know why, but hours of unuse). I would get an "input/output error" when I tried to do a df later. To get around the problem, I found I needed to "umount" (not smbumount) the

I have a problem with smbmount. I have a linux server running E-Smith (or Mitel SME server as it is now) which is basically a cut down version of RedHat 7.0 (running Kernel 2.2.19-7.0.8smp). Samba version is 2.0.10. We are connecting to an NT server (service pack 3 - I must upgrade that sometime soon). We have quite a good tapedrive and backup software (3rd party) on the E-Smith server, whereas

Unfortunately that didn?t work for me! I think there may be a bug somewhere although its possible that I have done something wrong somewhere. My reason for saying this is everything works perfectly when the windows machine is "uploading" the files but not when rsync is copying them.

This is more a "has anybody seen this?" question than anything else. I'm using smbfs version 2.2.3a-12 on 2.4.18 kernel, Debian 3.0. The other day, I had a problem where df got hung in D state because of smbfs mounting a share, then the PC exposing the share rebooting. (This has happened with smbfs across several versions). umount gave "device is busy" errors, and I

Hello, I?m using samba version 3.0.1-Debian rsync version 2.6.0 protocol version 27 And mount version 2.12 With kernel 2.4.22 As far as in aware these are the latest versions in Debian unstable.

Hi all.. I have found some problems on smbfs module in 2.4.18 kernel. I compiled it by myself (not the very first kernel compilation in my life ;-)) and then I have got it. Looks like it touch smbfs module as when I recompile 2.4.18 modules with smbfs sources changed to sources of smbfs from 2.4.17 problem disappears!! My mainboard is Abit BE6 with Pentium III 450 MHz. I am using SuSE 7.3 with

Hi- I'm working on a graphical interface to smbclient/smbmount/smbumount. As part of its operation, it will mount shares in directories under a user's home directory. I've run into a bit of a problem regarding the distributions of the mount utilities, specifically on Redhat 5.1/5.2. They are shipping an RPM with smbfs 2.0.1, which is known to have a security hole... so it should

Is this a known problem? I've seen this problem both under 2.0.6 and 2.0.7, on my Debian Linux system (kernel 2.2.14): A Win95 share that I mounted under smbfs will show up as mounted in df, and even contain the correct Used/Available info. If I do an 'ls' on the mountpoint, I see no files. If I 'umount' the share, I get the 'not mounted' error, but then no longer

Hi! The problem appears to be the same I reported months ago: My Linux box (Hedronn) has //Delenn/C and //Delenn/D mounted to /mnt/delenn1 and /mnt/delenn2. I have a music player running on Hedronn almost 24/7, but Delenn runs W98 and thanks to that crashes quite often. The music played comes from //Delenn/D. Hedronn has probably been playing music from there when Delenn crashed, and now

I'm running smbfs on a Debian box with kernel 2.4.24. I would give you more information (such as my samba tools versions) if I could get into the box, but it's hung right now due to this bug. I'm mounting a filesystem from my desktop Windows box (which is right next to it; there's a D-Link in the way, though) and passing large amounts of data to it (backups). If the connection

This may not be the place to talk about smbfs, but it's also possible this is a samba problem... Here's the situation, I mount a share on my Linux client from a Linux samba server, and it seems to work okay at first... If I try and play a video from the share, it hangs after an unspecified time, maybe 5-10 mins... if I try and play multiple video's, or let konquror try and

I mount a WinNT share using a samba client version 2.2.5: smbmount -t smbfs -o username=user //ntserver/share /logs Then I want to watch a log generated by Internet Information Server (IIS) that grows continually: tail -f /logs/zzz.txt I can see the last lines in file zzz.txt the first time, but I don't get the new lines that are appended in such file. From any windows station I have

[Note: This has been posted to linux-kernel and was ignored. Since smbfs is maintained by the samba team, I am retrying here] Hi! To maintain and install packages from CD-ROM to my Debian/GNU Linux system, I use Debian's apt package.

I've a PC with a 2.2.13 kernel and Samba 2.0.7. It serves shares to our lan and has had no problems since its install. Recently, I tried to copy a bunch of files from an older OS/2 server to the Samba server via smbclient and smbmount. Neither shows all the files in a few of the several directories on the OS/2 server, and neither agrees with the other as to the actual number of files.

Hello, recently I've ran into the problem that if a user mounts a share multiple times, then it cannot be mounted, except by root. Here is the relevant fstab line: //sephiroth/E /home/unity/Sephiroth smbfs ro,users,noauto 0 0 A user can mount and unmount the fs fine: unity@oaklandgardens ~ $ cd ~unity/ unity@oaklandgardens ~ $ mount Sephiroth/ Password: unity@oaklandgardens ~ $ mount |

All, This is my first posting to any of the Samba mailing lists. I've been a lurker for a year or so as I've been working on a VFS for the company I'm working for. We're currently using Samba 3.0.10-4 on RedHat AS 3 Update 4 and we are observing the following problem both with our VFS and with shares residing in a Linux directory on the Samba server. If a directory has lots of
