Very strange problems with SAMBA_TNG

[Volker Christian]

Hello everybody,

I don't want to mess up this list with stupid questions, so if this is one
of these, please ignore it.

I have a very strange problem when using one of the newer (and also the
newest I get today via cvs) tng-code. A approximately two weeks old code
works fine (I am sorry, I don't know exactly the day I checked the working
code out from the repository).

The problem is the following. Every time I want connect to the server as a
user with a username longer then three characters smbd crashes. The effect
is the same when I want to join the domain maintained by the samba-PDC with
a WinNT box with a netbios-name longer then three characters. I really
played around long with it - also I set up a second linux-box with a late
tng-code - the effect is the same - smbd crashes if ... longer then three
character.

Here is a the part of the machine-logfile - anyone there who knows whats
wrong?

Volker
