[Samba] NFS mounted samba share

[Daniel Bourque]

Hi,

    I'm sharing an NFS mounted directory via samba. When a client 
connect to the share, he can browse it fine, but any attempt to read 
data, like copying or looking that the file's properties results in a 
lockup on the client, and an eventual time out. On the server, a lock ( 
DENY_NONE  0x120089    RDONLY     NONE ) is created an never goes away, 
even after the client as disconnected.


- I can login the server and read data just fine from that NFS mount 
point, but samba can't.
- I can access other NFS mounted ( off another server ) via samba  just 
fine.

if I use smbclient as the CIFS client, the error is:

Error Call timed out: server did not respond after 20000 milliseconds 
closing remote file

Any help would be appreciated !
