Whooeeee... I've been fudging with this problem for a while without making headway... A couple days ago I ran an update on a FC5 Xen Dom0 and all the corresponding FC5 DomU's. I didn't notice anything until I rebooted. At that point, Samba stopped working completely and coredumps every couple minutes. Kernel is 2.6.17-1.2187_FC5xenU Samba is samba-3.0.23c-1.fc5 /var/log/messages is filled with: Nov 22 16:26:12 xm-fc5-001 smbd[6174]: [2006/11/22 16:26:12, 0] lib/util.c:smb_panic(1614) Nov 22 16:26:12 xm-fc5-001 smbd[6174]: PANIC (pid 6174): internal error Nov 22 16:26:12 xm-fc5-001 smbd[6174]: [2006/11/22 16:26:12, 0] lib/util.c:log_stack_trace(1721) Nov 22 16:26:12 xm-fc5-001 smbd[6174]: BACKTRACE: 20 stack frames: Nov 22 16:26:12 xm-fc5-001 smbd[6174]: #0 smbd(log_stack_trace+0x2d) [0x78d8ad] Nov 22 16:26:12 xm-fc5-001 smbd[6174]: #1 smbd(smb_panic+0x5d) [0x78d9dd] Nov 22 16:26:12 xm-fc5-001 smbd[6174]: #2 smbd [0x77951a] Nov 22 16:26:12 xm-fc5-001 smbd[6174]: #3 [0xdde420] Nov 22 16:26:13 xm-fc5-001 smbd[6174]: #4 /lib/i686/nosegneg/libc.so.6(__strdup+0x1f) [0x98c5d3] Nov 22 16:26:13 xm-fc5-001 smbd[6174]: #5 /lib/libnsl.so.1(nis_list+0x5d2) [0x18eb5f] Nov 22 16:26:13 xm-fc5-001 smbd[6174]: #6 /lib/libnss_nisplus.so.2(_nss_nisplus_setnetgrent+0x8f) [0x2e262e] I've tried rolling back to the previous kernels in both Dom0 and DomU, but I'm not certain if it's in any way related to Xen. There are also multiple instances of: Nov 22 03:52:32 xm-fc5-001 init: Id "co" respawning too fast: disabled for 5 minutes I don't see anything in inittab or my runscripts. Bugzilla show some Samba client issues with the .2200 kernel, but nothing I saw this, but it appears to be SELinux related. SELinux is disabled in my machine: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=192557 Others appear to be client related, whereas I'm trying to export a share to XP systems. BTW, this will also bluescreen XP machines pretty consistently. If you attempt to map/browse the broken CIFS share, after around six attempts XP (SP2, Media Center) will bluescreen. -- * The Digital Hermit http://www.digitalhermit.com * Unix and Linux Solutions kwan@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
