Sorry for the late response. As for the bug, I'm seeing that too and some other users are too (see #347947). I have "fixed" the bug by introducing a signal handler for the SIGPIPE but it turns out that the problem occurs with all hosts I've tested it against (Samba server, Windows XP and Windows 2000 Advanced server) and I'm not knowledgeable enough about the Samba code in order to fix this. Upstream is dead, well, actually, they released nat 2.0 version [1] which is binary only and they explicitly say they will not be releasing their source code for it. I have some packages with debugging capabilites enabled (and some compile warnings fixed too) which seem to behave better (no SIGPIPEs) but cannot actually do bulk scans properly. If anybody wants to check them out and try to fix this issue please speak up. I'm going to leave these bugs open for a while and see if someone can step in but, if I'm not able to fix them, I'm going to reassing these to ftp.debian.org and ask smb-nat to be removed from Debian altogether. I'm also raising this bug's severity since it cannot be really used for its intended purposes (also, maybe it being an RC bug might attract some more attention to the package) Regards Javier [1] http://www.tux.org/pub/security/secnet/tools/nat20beta/ ftp://ftp.cert.dfn.de/pub/tools/net-mgmt/nat/nat20beta/ ftp://ftp.spin.ad.jp/pub/Security/nat/nat20beta/
