Please forgive me if direct email is not appropriate, but I am at my wit's end.
I am running Kernel 2.6.35.2. Previously, I was running 2.6.32.something (don't know at this point). Samba is 3.4.8-59. I have been getting the inotify errors on both the old and the new Kernel, to the point that it filled my hard drive and made my Windows/XP unrecoverable. It appears to only happen when I am running Outlook on my Windows VM. Obviously, I normally run it all the time. Turning off notification is not a reasonable option. To get Windows to run, we restored to a version from June, but the inotify problem continued. So far, we have replaced the PST that my repetitive emails are sorted into, to eliminate the possibility that a corrupt PST is initiating a Windows Outlook problem/loop. Our next step would be to start a new OST, but that would put my email out of service for several hours as the OST is rebuilt. Nothing is wrong with the email messages involved. This inotify issue has been around for a long time, but there seems to be no resolution. Some of the comments in some of the forums suggest that the message is a debug message and shouldn't even be produced, and there were hints of a resolution for that. Is there one? I have lost most of the last three days because of this, and I really need some sort of resolution. After trying the OST rebuild, we would start all over with Linux, but that will cost me the better part of another day. Can you help? I can put you in touch with my techie (husband and/or son) if you want to work with them. They are both very knowledgeable. - Valerie Magee http://mageenet.net -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/options/samba
