similar to: kernel: smb_proc_readdir_long: error=-2, breaking

Hi list, On a share (Windows 2003 3790/5.2) mounted with smbmount v3.0.24 and smbfs 2.6.18-5-686, suddenly I'm seeing lots of "kernel: smb_proc_readdir_long: error=-2, breaking" messages in syslog while, for instance, ls'ing a particular directory. Here's the odd thing - if I do a couple of ls's quickly, the files appear (there are 129 files and 2 subdirs). If I ls

Dear All, We've been running samba successfully in our environment for some months. Last week we noticed that the list command when run from any of our linux hosts against a share on a windows host no longer works. The specifics. Windows 2000 domain with ddns, dhcp etc all fully operational. Windows 2000 sp4 file server Fedora Core 2 Linux hosts with samba 3.0.10 The Fedora hosts have a

On additional note, I was able to use filler directories to circumvent the problem. This works for me since it is archives, but wouldn't for most. Here is an example: No filler files: ls -l - Returns no files Filler file at top of the directory structure (00_SAMBA) ls -l - Returns directories 0-D and N-Z Filler files the top of directory structure and where D's stoped (00_SAMBA and

Hi guys/girls, How are you ? I'm running "Linux 2.4.22 SMP" with Samba-3.0.4 and pick up the following message in my syslog when accessing a mounted NT4 share: kernel: smb_proc_readdir_long: name=\OLAP Services\Data\GreatPlains\*, result=-13, rcls=1, err=5 Any ideas what this is ? Your assistance is greatly appreciated. Many thanks. Kindest regards David Wilson D c D a t a Tel

I have a problem where I mount a share from a win2k3 Box, when I do an ls in the directory I either get No files listed, or only get the first 129 of 300 files As soon as I type ls, I get the following in /var/log/messages Sep 22 10:53:34 monet1 kernel: smb_proc_readdir_long: name=, result=-2, rcls=1, err=123 I have done a bit of searching around and some people Have had similar problems with

Posted in the kernel mailing list with no responce, so trying here... Here is a quick overview: I am able to make a connection to a Win2K share and access all the directories and files, except one. It is rather large also... When I access try to access the directory, it will leave the error: smb_proc_readdir_long: name=, result=-2, rcls=1, err=123 in the /var/messages. It normally shows 0

Hello, We are getting a baffling problem with a samba mounted drive on Redhat, mounted from a windows box. We cannot always see files in the mounted directory with ls or perl. The directory has 237 files in it. We sometimes see 197 files with ls. Sometimes we see nothing. This can happen from one try to the next (i.e. run ls, see the files, immediately run ls again and see nothing). We have

Hi, A client has an Iomega REV drive installed on a PC and this is used for the off-site backups. This drive has disks left in and then that drive on the PC is shared out. I mount the share with mount -t cifs //10.1.1.20/XP61REV /mnt/xp61 -o username=user,password=password,rw and this is mounted on to a Debian Etch / Samba 3.0.24-6 machine. Now when I 'ls' or 'find' this

Hi, Just found this out - is it a bug which I should register or is this by design? We had been running a Samba 2.2 server for a few years with a domain called PSCT - everybody very happy (well done guys!). Installed a new server with Samba 3 based on Debian Etch. The new server was set as the domain PSCT2 to keep things clear. Copied all data across to the new server. The new server has

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

Richard, did you get anywhere with a fix on this one ? I have a similar problem rsyncing from a Samba [ver 2.2.5-10] [Redhat Linux v8.0] share to another Redhat Linux v8.0 box. cheers, Gary Marshall ---------------- Mob 07769 747080 -- No virus found in this outgoing message.

Hi everybody. First of all: i am using samba 3.0.3 and a 2.6 kernel. I am experiencing a strange problem. I can see, mount and use Windows shares. I can see and mount also Apple shares (through appleshareip and some sort of smb/cifs server on the apple side), but i can't browse them nor copy any files. With kernel 2.4 i couldn't browse, but i could normally copy files and rsyinc

Here are some more messages that pop in the server logs when I try to read folders on a Win2K file server - the folders/files were saved from a Macintosh on the network: smb_proc_readdir_long: name=\Font Library\B\Bernhard BoldCond. et al?\*, result=-2, rcls=1, err=123 smb_proc_readdir_long: name=\Font Library\K\Kino, et al?\*, result=-2, rcls=1, err=123 smb_proc_readdir_long: name=\Font

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.

I'm using debian Sarge, Samba 3.0.6-3, Kernel 2.6.8 I use smbmount //server/share mymountpt -oguest which connects fine, but it all dies (hangs) if I try to look in that mounted directory with konqueror in kde OR nautillus in gnome. In dmesg of the server computer I get: smb_proc_readdir_long: error=-512, breaking and the same but with error -13 smb_add_request ... Timed Out! this last

Hi! I use MS-Client for pre-Windows 95 computers to use shares on my Linux boxes, but also to serve their disks to everyone else. This used to work, but I gradually upgraded and problems arose. This afternoon, I wanted to use smbclient to access a share on the Dos-computer, it gave listings of what was there, but I couldnt retrieve any file. Mounting didn't work either, because I still had

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

Hello all, I need help about smbiod, i have mounted samba server from linux client with command "mount -t smbfs -o username=root //10.10.x.x/folder /dest" and then the client ask about password, and it works, but when i copy files in the middle of the process suddenly it stoped, then i run command "top" i see "smbiod" use verry high cpu usage(more than 90%).
