Hi All,
I posted this earlier, but not sure if it showed up, so:
samba 2.2.7 built with:
./configure
make
make install
(That is, no special build options)
in our smb.conf the line:
logon script = %u.bat:
^
|
lowercase ------
When trying to login (from Windows 9x,NT, 2K or Linux with winbindd),
several (hundred) of these messages appear in the server logs:
[the date shows up here] lib/util_str.c: string_sub (1217)
ERROR: string overflow by 2 in string_sub(%u, 7)
^
|
and this number --------------------------------------
is the user name length + 2
The workstation trying to login eventually times out with an "incorrect
password" message. On the server, smbd and nmbd stop responding to
/etc/init.d/samba stop or other commands and need to be stopped with kill
-9
if we change the line in smb.conf to
logon script = %U.bat:
^
|
uppercase ------
Then everything works fine. Is there a patch I missed somewhere?
TIA
