[Samba] Bug or misconfiguration related to ACLs?

[Matt Easton]

Hello,

I looked at my log file this morning and I see a lot of stuff about 
ACLs that I don't understand and this notice:
INTERNAL ERROR: Signal 11 in pid 23985 (3.0.9-1.3E.3)

I suspect that it was caused when a user tried to change permissions on 
the contents of a directory or delete it (I'm trying to find that out 
now).  The directory seemingly no longer exists, so the user may have 
been successful.

This is a Redhat system RHEL 3., with samba installed from RPMs.  It's 
a one server shop, that has been upgraded over the years since early 
2.x days.

Do I need to do anything about this?
