Hello all I am running into a problem and hoping you can provide a
little guidance.

 

 I am currently running 3.3.7 downloaded and installed from pware

 

 

Config file has the following

 

[global]


# Workgroup section


   workgroup = DOMAIN


   server string = installs-aix Samba Server


   local master = no


 


 

# Logging section

   log file = /usr/local/samba/var/log.%m 

   log level = 10                         

   syslog = 5                             

   vfs object = extd_audit                

 

# Security section

   security = ADS 

   realm = REALM.COM

   use spnego = yes

   winbind enum users = yes

   winbind enum groups = yes

   winbind use default domain = yes

   winbind nested groups = yes

   winbind separator = +

   idmap uid = 6000-20000

   idmap gid = 6000-20000

   encrypt passwords = yes

 

   host msdfs = yes

   load printers = no

   browsable = no

   socket options = TCP_NODELAY

   deadtime = 10

[dfs]

        comment = main location for all shares

        path = /usr/local/dfsroot

        browseable = yes

        msdfs root = yes

 

 

Log File shows this

 

[2010/01/13 23:12:44,  0] smbd/msdfs.c:is_msdfs_link_internal(447)

  is_msdfs_link_read_target: Error reading msdfs link ./test: Result too
large

[2010/01/13 23:12:44,  5] smbd/trans2.c:get_lanman2_dir_entry(1400)

  get_lanman2_dir_entry:Couldn't stat [./test] (No such file or
directory)

 

 

dfsroot dir has the following in it

ls -la /usr/local/dfsroot/

total 0

drwxr-xr-x    2 root     system          256 Jan 13 23:11 .

drwxr-xr-x    7 root     system          256 Jan 13 21:09 ..

lrwxrwxrwx    1 root     system           18 Jan 13 23:11 test ->
msdfs:convert\conv

 

I get the same error if attempting the connection from linux smbclient
or windows xp

 

This seems to be very similar to the following post

Thanks for Your Help
