I've finally narrowed down the conditions for this ; it is very
reproducible. It is only 64-bit Windows 2003 (not 32-bit) and the
problem started when I upgraded from linux kernel 2.4.22 to 2.4.25. I
verified there is no problem when I go back to 2.4.22. The pcap files I am
sending to [EMAIL PROTECTED] are the same operation done on the share
using 2.4.22 or 2.4.25. You can see there is no response from DWDEV64 in
the 2.4.25 capture - because it is DEAD!
Steps to reproduce:
1. smbmount share
2. cd to mounted share
3. ls in top directory works
4. ls some sub-directory hangs the box
Curiously I also noticed that from a 32-bit win2k box, if I map the 64-bit
Win2003 drive, and I go there in a DOS shell, it will not let me cd to a
sub-directory. It returns the error message "Invalid Directory"

Can you please get an ethereal capture trace of this problem and
send it to [EMAIL PROTECTED] We need to be able to produce a binary
using the smbclient code that can reproduce this so we can send it to
Microsoft and get them to fix it.
Thanks,
Jeremy.
