[Samba] 2.2.4 and "veto files" -> cpu maxed out

[Giulio Orsero]

linux 2.2.19/rh6x

I use in a share

veto files = /.*/

whenever you connect to it the client process hangs, the smbd starts
consuming cpu time and cannot be killed but with "kill -9".

This is the last part of the smbd log

[2002/05/16 05:49:51, 3] smbd/sec_ctx.c:set_sec_ctx(319)
  3 user groups:
  100 6 19
[2002/05/16 05:49:51, 3] smbd/trans2.c:call_trans2findfirst(863)
  call_trans2findfirst: dirtype = 22, maxentries = 512, close_after_first=0,
clo
se_if_end = 1 requires_resume_key = 1 level = 260, max_data_bytes = 65535
[2002/05/16 05:49:51, 3] lib/util.c:unix_clean_name(387)
  unix_clean_name [/*]
[2002/05/16 05:49:51, 3] lib/util.c:unix_clean_name(387)
  unix_clean_name [*]
[2002/05/16 05:49:51, 3] lib/util.c:unix_clean_name(387)
  unix_clean_name [./]

Then it starts running out of control.


I don't know if it started with 2.2.4 or 2.2.3; I'm quite sure it worked
with 2.2.2.
Anyone with similar experiences?
