Bug Description
Binary package hint: samba
I've got win2k in a qemu vm and I'm using '-smb' with my home directory. When I try to reach that network drive, smbd crashes. The log is below. And w2k reports that the network path was not found.
Smbd reports that it is dumping core in /var/log/
So there might be two bugs here, one being that it crashes, as in the log below.
The second being that there is no coredump.
Note that I 'chgrp adm /var/*/samba' and 'chmod g+rw /var/*/samba' to be able to run samba as a regular user. This is because of bug 50385.
This is intrepid, uptodate to today, 5-oct-2008, it is 2:3.2.3-1ubuntu2. And this is a x86_64 install.
If there's something else you'd like me to do, just ask. It is very easy to reproduce.
This is all that is logged for the whole run in /var/log/

Please note that there's a simple 'chmod g+rw /var/run/ samba/message. tbd' fixes the access denied and thus prevents the whole stacktrace.
But I just thought that I should report it anyways.
