Hi,

We're running Samba (3.0.28-1.el5_2.1) on a Redhat (5.2) server using winbind to authenticate against a Windows AD.

This all worked fine for a while. But now we have the problem that (some) users coming from Linux clients cause an excessive amount of smbd processes. We had 1 user who had more than 1700 smbd processes all coming from the same client. While on the client side there where only a few cifs processes running.

All these processes are not responding to a normal kill. They have no more connection to the client what so ever and have to be killed with a kill -9.

Does anyone out there have had the same experiences or does someone know the solution to our problem? Please let me know.


Bye,
Marco.
