 Would be nice if a Samba-guru could point us to the right direction.

This seems to come from a samba module called odsam that is
not part of upstream Samba. The corresponding patch is
available from

http://www.opensource.apple.com/darwinsource/10.5.6/samba-187.8/patches/auth-module-open-directory

but has not been submitted by Apple for upstream Samba. In
fact, it carries a

which to me seems quite interesting for GPL code :-)

Please contact your Apple support for help with this issue.

Thanks,

Volker

Dear List,

I wonder if somebody has a correctly working SMB service in Mac OS X  
Server 10.5.x. I've got here lots of This process has forked.. and  
Broken Pipe errors as described in this post: http://www.afp548.com/forum/viewtopic.php?showtopic=22295


Would be nice if a Samba-guru could point us to the right direction.

Thanks,

Alex

The All Rights Reserved bit is rather silly, being
as it's GPL code :-). Can't go upstream with that (C)
I'm afraid.

 Dear List,

 10.5.x. I've got here lots of This process has forked..

This is because a call to the Security framework touches a part of
CoreFoundation that is unhappy that Samba forks without a subsequent
exec. It's annoying but harmless.

 and Broken Pipe
 errors as described in this post:
 http://www.afp548.com/forum/viewtopic.php?showtopic=22295

Not really enough info to say what is happening here. the broken pipe
means that the client disconnected unexpectedly, but it's not clear
why. As some of the posters in that thread note, there is a bug in the
streams module where we return an error for reads after the
end-of-file (we ought to succeed but return no data).


 Would be nice if a Samba-guru could point us to the right direction.

Volker's suggestion to file a Radar with Apple is spot on.
