[CentOS] samba problem with kernel 2.6.32-279.*
Hello, We use Norton Ghost, running in a PXE booted DOS, to handle Windows XP images. The images are stored on a samba share on our CentOS 6 server. This has worked without any problems for years. After kernel 2.6.32-279* it has stopped working. The symptom is that if I boot in DOS, and do: net use x: \\myserver\ghostimages dir x: I get an infinite loop where the first file name is listed again and again. Going back to kernel-2.6.32-220.17.1 on the server fixes the problem. The problem exist with kernel-2.6.32-279, kernel-2.6.32-279.2.1, and kernel-2.6.32-279.5.1. Samba is version samba-3.5.10-125, the server is x86_64. Where should I look for a solution to that problem on the newer kernels?

But then, it's only my guess. We've had some HP machines with this behaviour. The trick on them was to boot with: hda=noprobe hdc=noprobe and the disk shows up as sda instead of hda, now working at full speed. This has to be done during installation and manually added to grub.conf after the installation.

I mean, can you imagine anyone who used RHEL 2.1 up until less than a year ago? So, if I set up a server with RHEL 5.5 or CentOS 5.4 today, I would only get updates until 14-Mar-2012, if the life time is reduced to 5 years? That's less than two years. That's a bit too short lifetime for my servers. Yes of course, I can upgrade to RHEL 6 when it comes out, but my reason for paying Red Hat is to avoid the upgrade.
