No joke. 64-bit Windows Advanced Server 2003 blue-screens on file share

sub-directory of a share mounted from 64-bit Win2003, immediately
crashes windows. I rolled back to 2.4.22 and no crash. I tried 2.4.25
against a 32-bit 2003 Win2003, and no crash. I didn't test different
versions of Samba. But on 2.4.25, trying to ls a sub-directory of the
mounted share or cd to that sub-directory, instantly and repeatedly
blue-screens windows.


When you say mount, does that mean smbfs?


yes.

2.4.25 allows you to enable the cifs unix extensions in smbfs. Perhaps
turning those off makes a difference?

The other change is that smbfs in 2.4.25 has large file support. smbfs in 2.4.24 should behave like 2.4.22.

ok, I'll try that tomorrow. Any idea what those directives are?
