Greetings, About 2 months ago, we decided to backup our Oracle test servers via samba rather than nfs -- the backups were just taking too long using nfs. No problem mounting the remote file share to the server and the backup took about one-third of the time. Yep, worked good...and still continues to out perform nfs hands down. Problem is - I'm receiving errors on both of the test servers. The backups are completing and nothing is hanging, but I need to find out more on the following errors before making the change in our production environment: smb_get_length: recv error = 5 smb_trans2_request: result=-5, setting invalid smb_retry: successful, new pid=818, generation=114 smb_get_length: recv error = 5 smb_trans2_request: result=-5, setting invalid smb_retry: successful, new pid=818, generation=115 smb_get_length: recv error = 5 smb_request: result -5, setting invalid smb_retry: successful, new pid=818, generation=116 smb_get_length: recv error = 5 smb_request: result -5, setting invalid smb_retry: successful, new pid=818, generation=117 smb_get_length: recv error = 5 smb_trans2_request: result=-5, setting invalid smb_retry: successful, new pid=818, generation=118 smb_get_length: recv error = 5 smb_trans2_request: result=-5, setting invalid smb_retry: successful, new pid=818, generation=119
smb_proc_readdir_long: name=\temp\admin\misc\*, result=-13, rcls=1, err=5 smb_proc_readdir_long: name=\temp\admin\scripts\monitor_hosts\*, result=-13, rcl s=1, err=5 I've been researching using Google, samba.org and others, but have run into what many others are experiencing -- there's just not a lot of helpful documentation for samba errors. Not making too much headway, so I decided to seek the wisdom of the masses. Has anyone seen and successfully corrected these errors? Many thanks....
