Trying to backup up a filesystem mounted via CIFS, I got these messages from tar:
tar: t/2.6.10-orig/net/ipv4/netfilter/ipt_CONNMARK.c: File shrank by 1178 bytes; padding with zeros tar: t/2.6.10-orig/net/ipv4/netfilter/ipt_TCPMSS.c: File shrank by 4177 bytes; padding with zeros tar: t/2.6.10-orig/net/ipv4/netfilter/ipt_DSCP.c: File shrank by 1172 bytes; padding with zeros tar: t/2.6.10-orig/net/ipv4/netfilter/ipt_tos.c: file changed as we read it tar: t/2.6.10-orig/net/ipv4/netfilter/ipt_ECN.c: File shrank by 1638 bytes; padding with zeros tar: t/2.6.10-orig/net/ipv4/netfilter/ipt_mark.c: file changed as we read it tar: t/2.6.10-orig/net/ipv6/netfilter/ip6t_mark.c: file changed as we read it This was with kernel 2.6.19.1 SMP on x86_64, creating a tar file on a local jfs filesystem (t is the source path on a cifs mount.) Using 2.6.18.6-pre2 uniprocessor i386, with smbfs instead of cifs, everything works fine so I'm pretty sure the server is OK. Does this match any known problems? -- MBTI: IXTP - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
