I have been doing some testing with libsmbclient from the 3.0.0
release. I disconnect the windows smb server from the network and
I start to see errors. The weird part is on the second time the
client tries to open a file on the server, the following message gets
written to stderr "write failure. Error = Bad file descriptor". It
only seems to happen the second time, not the first or any of the times
after the second open. The client I am running closes stderr and
stdout and opens other handles, so the stderr message goes someplace
it should not. Is there a way to turn off all error messages, or keep
the library from writing to stderr? The debug arg on the smbc_init
call is set to 0 when it is called.
