Samba: very strange truncation error
i've come across this same problem with any windows machine connecting to my samba machine. The windows machiens are looking for services... and will cause that log output on every initial connection. You can either delete this key in window registry: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\RemoteComputer\NameSpace\{D6277990-4C6A-11CF-8D87-00AA0060F5BF} or a odd'er fix is to add this to my smb.conf [.] comment = windows work around public = no browseable = no path = /tmp now it finds a "." service that it can't browse so it doesn't list it. Helps samba to not barf on every connection. Not sure who to get this out to, or who to notify about this bug, but i've found a lot of people with the same problems (google) but no fixes. And have experienced this problem going from samba (no problems) to samba3. in regards to question: http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-questions/attachments/20030827/ef6539ad/attachment.bin--Ian Steinmetz ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"

Define "configured virutally identically." In what ways do they differ, exactly?

I received no response from freebsd-questions, so I posted to the samba mailing list (http://lists.samba.org/pipermail/samba/), but received no response from that list, either. I have been ignoring the problem (well, that's not entirely accurate---I purchased a Powerbook to replace my dying Win2k notebook) since I posted, but AFAIK, it hasn't been resolved. Based on the description of your configuration, you probably have the better chance of determining root cause. I currently have many other priorities, so I will be unable to look into this any deeper until further notice. One possible solution would be to upgrade to 3.0.0 (net/samba-devel). I have yet to do so myself, but I'm hoping that by doing so, cosmic rays will shine down from the distribution servers and send the issue hurtling off to /dev/null, at least for the time being. :-) Best of luck! -- Anthony Chavez http://www.anthonychavez.org/ mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]jabber:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Wed, 27 Aug 2003 10:25:23 -0600 [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: > Fellow Samba- and FreeBSD-lovers: > > I'm encountering a very peculiar error.

Samba: very strange truncation error
Fellow Samba- and FreeBSD-lovers: I'm encountering a very peculiar error. I first encountered it when doing an upgrade to Samba 2.2.8a (from a fairly recent version---I don't recally exactly which, but it couldn't have been older than 2.2.7) on FreeBSD 4.8-STABLE. The error I'm encountering is twofold. In the first example, I try to connect to the "shared" service, which results in the following: [2003/08/26 18:21:17, 0] smbd/service.c:make_connection(252) aphrodite (192.168.1.4) couldn't find service share Second, when trying to connect to service acc I get: [2003/08/18 13:36:22, 0] smbd/service.c:make_connection(252) aphrodite (192.168.1.4) couldn't find service accproject.ede [2003/08/18 13:36:22, 0] smbd/service.c:make_connection(252) aphrodite (192.168.1.4) couldn't find service accmakefile.am The former example doesn't seem to phase Win2k SP4 at all, but certain apps (such as Emacs 21.3.1) freeze up when the latter is encountered. However, when I try to access the acc service again, it works fine (i.e., it alternates from functional to non-functional, ad nauseum). I've tried rebuilding a couple of times, which doesn't fix the problem at all. The make variables (which should be obvious to any FreeBSD user experienced with portupgrade and fairly straightforward to everyone else) I pass to the build process are: -DWITH_AUDIT -DWITH_RECYCLE -DWITH_SSL -DWITH_UTMP -DWITH_MSDFS -DWITHOUT_CUPS -DWITH_WINBIND_AUTH_CHALLENGE I would very much appreciate any insight that you could lend. This is only a slight nuisance, but one that is starting become slightly more irritating as time goes on. I've included my (very minimal) smb.conf below.
