The error is in what ever routine is converting UNIX filenames to VMS.

It is setting the ":" as a filename character, and not as a device 
delimiter.

And unless the SAMBA panic handler has been disabled, calling LIB$SIGNAL 
on fatal errors can really lead to some interesting and useless tracebacks.
