[Samba] cifs mount issue (cannot read files)

[Pappas, Bill]

In version 3.0.23a (as a file server), I've noticed that CIFS clients
(mount samba shares as cifs) get read errors.

 

For example, if the vi a text file on the share, they get a read error.

 

If the more a text file, nothing comes back, but the prompt.

 

In 3.0.10 (pre configured by Centos, not compiled by me) this is not a
problem.

 

 

Here are my 3.0.23a options during configure:

 

./configure --prefix /usr/local/samba-3.0.23a --with-smbmount --with-pam
--with-pam_smbpass --with-acl-support --disable-iprint --disable-cups

 

 

I noticed that cifs mount is enabled my default:

 

# ./configure --help| grep -i cifs

  --with-cifsmount        Include mount.cifs and umount.cifs (Linux
only) suppo

 

 

Any suggestions?  Is there a fix in 3.0.25a?
