SAMBA v2.2.7a issues

[COLLOT Jean-Yves]

Hi everyone.

First, thanks for your thanks, and keep updated for the next release, which
will be available within a couple of weeks, I hope, because it will be
better...

For the 1st question ("Unknown socket option"), I am sorry, but I did not
remove from the valid list the IP options that are not available in VMS
TCP/IP Services. I just left all the options that are defined in the
standard Samba. Obviously, when you select an option which is not
implemented by TCP/IP Services, you'll have this error message in the log.
I'll try to think about removing what's not available in the next release.
However (who knows?) may be those options will be available in a future
release of VMS/TCP/IP ...

For the 2nd question, I have no idea what could happen. I added more
information in the error message (namely the buffer length, in order to know
why it's invalid), so we'll be able to investigate further with the next
release.

Hi everyone,

I have recently installed the JYC SAMBA v227a and am really impressed by 
the performance enhancements (sincere congrats. to JYC).

There are the usual teething problems but on the whole it is working 
fine. I do however have two specific questions to put to the community 
at present.

1. I have included the new smb.conf global option
     socket options = iptos_lowdelay
    In my client log files i see (very regularly) the message.
     "Unknown socket option iptos_lowdelay"
    If i run an "smbtestparm" the option is not flagged as unknown so why
    the message in the log files?

2. I have one particular user who has a repeated log file error message:
    "receive_local_message. Error in recvfrom. (invalid buffer length)."
    The error does not seem to create problems for the client but does
    mean that the log file for this client is very lengthy.
    Any suggestions ?

Thanks.
