DFS problem

[miguel.sanders at arcelormittal.com]

Hmm, what do you think about this:
356352: readlink("./test", "", 6)                       Err#34 ERANGE
Which would mean that the path name in the symbolic link is longer than the BufferSize value of the readlink call...
BTW, this is AIX ;)


Met vriendelijke groet
Best regards
Bien à vous

You might try to strace that smbd to see if this error message comes from the kernel.
