Ref: Bad File Descriptors

[Eric Meyer]

Samba Team,
In reference to the problem described by Wolfgang below - We are
experiencing the exact same thing.
We are using Mandrake 8.2 with 2.4.18 kernel and Samba 2.2.3a. Our Samba
shares are on a partition using Reiserfs. Clients are running WinXP and
Win2000. All clients are experiencing "Bad File Descriptor" errors. Below is
an example from the one of our clients log file.
[2002/05/29 17:00:42, 0] smbd/fileio.c:seek_file(53) seek_file: sys_lseek
failed. Error was Bad file descriptor
We also had to turn off oplocks etc for the same reasons as described by
Wolfgang.
Thanks,
Eric Meyer, P.E.

Yes, I'd like to see it please. Please let me know all versions
of software involved.
