[Samba] Re: smb_proc_readX_data

[Michael Gasch]

i have the same problems on SuSE and debian systems with shipped kernels 
(2.6)

i was wondering why the samba team didn't respond to those mails from 
you and tried smbclient, because smbfs ist not maintained by them
smbclient didn't show those problems (btw: cifs has not these problems 
but produces some weird messages, too -> " CIFS VFS: Error 0xfffffff3 or 
on cifs_get_inode_info in lookup")

hope this helps a little bit

cheerz
