|
| "Cannot find the scpcified drawing file. Please verify that the network
| drive is available and the file exists"
|

| exactly what they expect and want to happen.

I think we actually need a raw network trace
(tcpdump -w /tmp/dump.pcap -s 0 -i eth0 host <client ip>)
and a level 10 smbd debug log

You might want to test 3.0.12rc1 since jeremy just fixed an
issue with pending modtimes that fixed issues with excel.



cheers, jerry
