Just for the history/other users the resolution of the problem Steve had: OpenVZ was installed on XFS, while Xen used ext3 file system. XFS doesn't support filetype feature (d_type field returned by readdir()/getdents64()), so d_type is always reported as DT_UNKNOWN. nrpe application from Debian

BTW, Do you use/have WINS server? it is usually used for names resolution and can be used w/o broadcasts, so it should work even with your current configuration. http://www.oreilly.com/catalog/samba/chapter/book/ch07_03.html Thanks, Kirill Kirill Korotaev wrote: > Steve Wray wrote: > >>Just o

Just one other possible data point. I may have just dismissed these problems as some kind of creeping senility but I've seen some other bizarre issues with VMs migrated into OpenVZ. One of these is to do with Samba filesharing. When the VM is migrated into OpenVZ from Xen, samba fileshares o
