ahoy all.
working 2 machines, both with fedora core 2 Linux 2.6.8-1.521 and the
following samba config:
samba-common-3.0.7-2.FC2
system-config-samba-1.2.9-2
samba-client-3.0.7-2.FC2
samba-3.0.7-2.FC2
can mount and unmount samba shares fine. however, once any file
transfer or seek or whatever (i.e. nautilus to view mounted folders,
xmms to access files on mounted share, etc.) io with samba server
freezes. i cannot cd,ls into mounted directories. df,ls,cd eventually
give up with message:
'/mnt/samba/casa/moe/share': Input/output error
afterwards cannot unmount shares (i.e. device busy) even after restart
of samba server
three interesting things:
1. when i access the samba server from windows xp pro, no problems: only
happens from the linux client.
2. when samba server starts, there are 2 smbd -D processes and one nmbd
-D process. even when restart samba server service, same thing.
3. when freeze occurs, following 2 processes show up:
root 3103 0.0 0.0 0 0 ? SW 13:35 0:00 [smbiod]
mrgrimm 3137 0.0 0.0 0 0 ? Z 13:38 0:00 [netstat]
