[Samba] (3.0.2a) Client lose connection after deleting a large folder

[Michael Harlaut]

Hi,

We encounter a strange issue with a 3.0.2a Samba server (this problem 
also happens with previous versions).
(Using Debian stable, Samba 3.0.2a, Windows 2000 SP4 client, NT4 SP3 
PDC, No WINS)

The reproductibility is quite total with these steps :

- Copying a quite large folder (50 Mbytes) on the server
- Deleting it (on the server too)

=> The client connection is losted and explorer returns an error saying 
the (mapped) drive no longer exists ...

This practice is not really usefull in a production environment, but 
it's quite annoying ...

After a short time, it's possible to re-use the mapped drive again.

Is anybody encounters this ? Perhaps we forgotten something ...
Do not hesitate to ask me for any element I could have forgotten.

Thanx,

-- 
Michael
