[Samba] Windows 7 Error Logs

[Moray Henderson]

Hello list,

I have been using "smb ports = 445" to get rid of the dreaded "Transport
endpoint is not connected" error, and it seemed to be working fine for
Windows XP, on SerNet's samba3-3.3.9-40.el5 build.

We recently introduced Windows 7 to our network - and the "Transport
endpoint" errors are back:

Nov 25 17:21:41 experimental smbd[13018]: [2009/11/25 17:21:41,  0]
lib/util_sock.c:read_socket_with_timeout(939)
Nov 25 17:21:41 experimental smbd[13018]: [2009/11/25 17:21:41,  0]
lib/util_sock.c:get_peer_addr_internal(1676)
Nov 25 17:21:41 experimental smbd[13018]:   getpeername failed. Error
was Transport endpoint is not connected
Nov 25 17:21:41 experimental smbd[13018]:   read_socket_with_timeout:
client 0.0.0.0 read error = Connection reset by peer.

Anyone know what Windows 7 is trying to do here?

I'm also seeing some other errors generated by Win 7:

Nov 25 17:21:18 experimental smbd[13018]: [2009/11/25 17:21:18,  0]
rpc_server/srv_netlog_nt.c:_netr_ServerAuthenticate2(555)
Nov 25 17:21:18 experimental smbd[13018]:   _netr_ServerAuthenticate2:
netlogon_creds_server_check failed. Rejecting auth request from client
MEEPO machine account MEEPO$

It all works - I've joined the domain and can log in and access the
shares, so obviously it does manage to authenticate somehow, so is there
any way of stopping those messages appearing?
