Apologies, my Samba version is 3.2.5 (I was looking at an old Samba share created with my previous Samba installation).

Also, I didn't mention that I'm using Samba as Domain PDC in a network with two Windows workstations:
- Windows XP64
- Windows 2000

I get these errors when using Firefox on either workstation.

Thanks,
Philip Pawley

Two questions:-
1. What is the meaning of the following from my Samba logs?
2. What can I do to correct whatever is the problem?
---------------------------------
[2008/12/27 15:54:13,  2] smbd/open.c:open_directory(2157)
open_directory: unable to create firefox/Profiles/askiowsk.newsmb. Error was NT_STATUS_OBJECT_NAME_COLLISION
---------------------------------
I'm running Samba 3.0.33: the default and fully updated version on Fedora 10. As far as I can tell everything is working just fine. I am however getting very frequent error messages like the above while running Firefox (both 3.0.5 and 2.0.18) using a profile in a Samba share. I don't think it can be the profile that's the problem because firefox/Profiles/askiowsk.newsmb is a new profile. I made just now to test these error messages.

Many thanks,
Philip Pawley
