Greetings
We just updated two RH9 servers to 3.0.14a-1 and are still seeing a lot
of errors in the logs.
They're not stopping us working but I would _really_ like to understand
what is causing them.
On the first server, in the logwatch, we get a whole swag of:
samba:
Unknown Entries:
session opened for user janicer by (uid=0): 6 Time(s)
session opened for user sonjap by (uid=0): 8 Time(s)
session opened for user heatherf by (uid=0): 1 Time(s)
session closed for user georgev: 122 Time(s)
session closed for user heatherf: 1 Time(s)
session opened for user karens by (uid=0): 3 Time(s)
session closed for user margaretn: 1 Time(s)
session opened for user johnw by (uid=0): 1 Time(s)
session opened for user connieg by (uid=0): 3 Time(s)
session closed for user janicer: 6 Time(s)
session closed for user lindaa: 1 Time(s)
session opened for user yanal by (uid=0): 2 Time(s)
session opened for user wendym by (uid=0): 3 Time(s)
I don't understand why these should be "Unknown Entries" and would
really like to .
Then I see a whole load of:
mbd/dir.c:dptr_close(271) Invalid key 256 given to dptr_close : 33
Time(s)
smbd/dir.c:dptr_close(271) Invalid key 257 given to dptr_close : 32

Time(s)
And I _mean_ a whole load of them - this is just a quick extract
And then finally I see a swag of:

Okay - I admit to total confusion.
We run Samba in our own office (this is on a customers site btw) and I
have never had problems like this before.
Should I also post my smb.conf?
Whilst I don't expect a miracle, can someone please (gently) point me in
the right direction and suggest where I might start to look for the
answers?
TIA
Nigel.
