[Samba] Unable to save files to share

[Des Dougan]

Following the recent "trans2" exploit announcement, SuSE released kernel
2.6.5-7.111.5 to deal with it. I've installed the kernel upgrade on my
desktop (SuSE 9.1, Samba 3.0.4). However, with this kernel, when I try
to save to a share on my server (Samba 2.2.8), I get this set of error
messages:

Dec 13 22:10:25 p133 kernel: smb_trans2: invalid data, disp=0, cnt=0, tot=0, ofs=0
Dec 13 22:10:55 p133 kernel: smb_add_request: request [d87c4e80, mid=388] timed out!
Dec 13 22:10:57 p133 kernel: smb_trans2: invalid data, disp=0, cnt=0, tot=0, ofs=0
Dec 13 22:11:27 p133 kernel: smb_add_request: request [d87c4e80, mid=399] timed out!

Reverting the kernel back to the previous version is a temporary
workaround; however, I'm looking for a resolution, and would appreciate
any assistance.

Thanks,
