Hello, I am running samba on a machine running fedora 5. I did not know the system was configured to automatically update the system via cron, and when it put the new samba on last night, seems to have broken things. It is coredumping now whenever a user tries to authenticate.
Our system is set up with user level security which i manage via smbpasswd so there are no windows domains involved. The machine has been sitting nicely on a subnet with a w2k active directory domain controller which is used for something entirely different altogether. The problem started happening right after the yum update last night. Here is the update messege from /var/log/messages: Sep 27 04:19:50 server yum: Updated: samba-common.i386 3.0.23c-1.fc5 Sep 27 04:19:53 server yum: Updated: guile.i386 5:1.6.7-7.fc5 Sep 27 04:19:55 server yum: Updated: samba-client.i386 3.0.23c-1.fc5 Sep 27 04:20:01 server yum: Updated: samba.i386 3.0.23c-1.fc5 And here is what happens when a user maps their share and gets prompted for a username/password on their xp client: Sep 27 09:42:30 server smbd[16675]: =============================================================== Sep 27 09:42:30 server smbd[16675]: [2006/09/27 09:42:30, 0] lib/fault.c:fault_report(42) Sep 27 09:42:30 server smbd[16675]: INTERNAL ERROR: Signal 11 in pid 16675 (3.0.23c-1.fc5) Sep 27 09:42:30 server smbd[16675]: Please read the Trouble-Shooting section of the Samba3-HOWTO Sep 27 09:42:30 server smbd[16675]: [2006/09/27 09:42:30, 0] lib/fault.c:fault_report(44) Sep 27 09:42:30 server smbd[16675]: Sep 27 09:42:30 server smbd[16675]: From: http://www.samba.org/samba/docs/Samba3-HOWTO.pdf Sep 27 09:42:30 server smbd[16675]: [2006/09/27 09:42:30, 0] lib/fault.c:fault_report(45) Sep 27 09:42:30 server smbd[16675]: =============================================================== Sep 27 09:42:30 server smbd[16675]: [2006/09/27 09:42:30, 0] lib/util.c:smb_panic(1614) Sep 27 09:42:30 server smbd[16675]: PANIC (pid 16675): internal error Sep 27 09:42:30 server smbd[16675]: [2006/09/27 09:42:30, 0] lib/util.c:log_stack_trace(1721) Sep 27 09:42:30 server smbd[16675]: BACKTRACE: 20 stack frames: Sep 27 09:42:30 server smbd[16675]: #0 smbd(log_stack_trace+0x2d) [0x7c18ad] Sep 27 09:42:30 server smbd[16675]: #1 smbd(smb_panic+0x5d) [0x7c19dd] Sep 27 09:42:30 server smbd[16675]: #2 smbd [0x7ad51a] Sep 27 09:42:30 server smbd[16675]: #3 [0x239420] Sep 27 09:42:30 server smbd[16675]: #4 /lib/libc.so.6(__strdup+0x1f) [0x9f3893] Sep 27 09:42:30 server smbd[16675]: #5 /lib/libnsl.so.1(nis_list+0x5d2) [0xca4b5f] Sep 27 09:42:30 server smbd[16675]: #6 /lib/libnss_nisplus.so.2(_nss_nisplus_setnetgrent+0x8f) [0x45a62e] Sep 27 09:42:30 server smbd[16675]: #7 /lib/libc.so.6(innetgr+0xb2) [0xa6ed05] Sep 27 09:42:30 server smbd[16675]: #8 smbd(user_in_netgroup+0x65) [0x5f81e5] Sep 27 09:42:30 server smbd[16675]: #9 smbd(token_contains_name_in_list+0x23d) [0x5fabdd] Sep 27 09:42:30 server smbd[16675]: #10 smbd(is_share_read_only_for_token+0x98) [0x5faed8] Sep 27 09:42:30 server smbd[16675]: #11 smbd(change_to_user+0x442) [0x6395b2] Sep 27 09:42:30 server smbd[16675]: #12 smbd [0x658b38] Sep 27 09:42:30 server smbd[16675]: #13 smbd(make_connection+0x194) [0x659fa4] Sep 27 09:42:30 server smbd[16675]: #14 smbd(reply_tcon_and_X+0x21d) [0x61d8ed] Sep 27 09:42:30 server smbd[16675]: #15 smbd [0x6550e0] Sep 27 09:42:30 server smbd[16675]: #16 smbd(smbd_process+0x7ab) [0x65621b] Sep 27 09:42:30 server smbd[16675]: #17 smbd(main+0xbd0) [0x86ff90] Sep 27 09:42:30 server smbd[16675]: #18 /lib/libc.so.6(__libc_start_main+0xdc) [0x99f4e4] Sep 27 09:42:30 server smbd[16675]: #19 smbd [0x5e0701] Sep 27 09:42:30 server smbd[16675]: [2006/09/27 09:42:30, 0] lib/fault.c:dump_core(173) Sep 27 09:42:30 server smbd[16675]: dumping core in /var/log/samba/cores/smbd Smbclient gives me the following: # Smbclient //localhost/Myshare -U username Password: tree connect failed: Call returned zero bytes (EOF) My workaround has been to set things to share level security with no user authentication until i can either fix this problem or install a different version of samba and get my existing smb.conf working. Not sure if/how I can roll it back so if that's an option then great. This could have been avoided had i better inspected this system before managing it!!
