Hello,
Hope I won't get flamed for this, I've spent a fair amount of time
searching archives and news without finding anything close enough.
Since I've updated my Slackware 8.0 desktop to the 2.4.25 kernel (from
source, loaded .config from .24) I can't access shares off Win9x
systems reliably (98/98SE tested). smbfs is loaded as a module.
I get random 'Too many open files in system'. E.g.:
# /usr/local/samba/bin/smbmount //w98box/c /dosc -o password=xxxxx
# ls /dosc
/bin/ls: /dosc: Too many open files in system
(command repeated several times: hit up arrow and enter... and then:)
# ls /dosc
ASD.LOG* BIN/ CONFIG.TXT* MSDOS.SYS* SUHDLOG.---*
AUTOEXEC.001* BOOTLOG.DMA* CONFIG.W95* MSDOS.W95* SUHDLOG.BAK*
(...works!)
It seems to randomly succeed or fail, with a majority of failures.
I've been able to catch messages like the following in syslog:
Feb 26 13:42:27 alain kernel: smb_lookup: find windows/MSDFMAP.INI failed, error=-23
This used to work flawlessly in 2.4.24.
The Gods of Linux forgive me, I've copied ./fs/smbfs/* and
./include/linux/smb*.h from the 2.4.24 tree, "make modules" and
reloaded smbfs.o: now it works all the time!
Some background: Samba is v2.2.8a built from source.
Any hints? I've tried rebuilding smbfs with debug options in the
Makefile, SMBFS_PARANOIA on and off, I haven't been able to
make much sense out of it. It keeps failing in every configuration.
Greets,
_Alain_
