Thought I would post this for Rhiannon. As mentioned that patch can not be removed safely. When I tried to remove it, it listed four or five other patches that may not work correctly. So I cancelled out.

I may try and do a windows repair and see if that will put a fresh copy of the affected file(s) back on the machine. The repair I mention is the repair option you get when the installer finds a copy of windows on the hd and then asks to repair or whatever. Not the one where you use recovery console.

Ideas / Suggestions.

Many Thanks

Hi,
I have tried to post this to the samba list a couple times but keeps
getting bounced back for some reason...anyway here's my response --
I am running samba version 3.0.23 on RHEL 4. Last week I had experienced
a similar problem with a couple samba users. The reboot would occur when
trying to perform a save or save as...from a Word or Excel file on the
samba share. What I discovered to be the problem is the recent MS patch,
KB925902. I tried uninstalling the patch but for whatever reason it does
not fully uninstall, so I had to reinstall WinXP SP2 to fix the issue.
If your users are trying to copy MS office files, I would check to see
if your users have this patch installed. Rhiannon

If this fixes the problem for you feel free to post to the list for me.
Thanks!

Subject: Re: [Samba] Drag and Drop and Crash

New Update.

Went to the user machine this morning.  Using regedit I went through the

registry and removed any keys / values that contained the samba server
name.

Rebooted and then re-mapped a drive.  Still no joy.  Trying to do a
simple drag and drop copy form one location in the share to another location in the same share causes the machine to reboot.

Ideas / suggestions?

Many Thanks

More info.  I went the user's workstation and created a new user.
Then
mapped  a drive to a different share.  Attempted to copy a file within

that share and boom, reboot.

Hmmmm.

TIA

Hello List,

I am running a 3.0.24 server on redhat EL4. I have a user that has mapped a drive to his home directory on the server. When he copies a

file from the share to a local disk location, desktop for example, it

goes just fine. When he attempts to copy / move / cut and paste a file from one location on the share to another location in the same share, it will literally crash his local machine and it reboots. Other users can do the same no problems. He can map to a different samba server and is able to copy a file within that share.

I am suspecting some corrupt file entry or possibly something strange

in the registry not sure.  I have looked in his home directory and do

not see any thing out of the ordinary.

Ideas / Suggestions?

Many Thanks
