Package: samba Version: 3.0.23d-1 Severity: grave
Hi, I just upgrade samba and started to get massive timeout issues trying to access my shares. Troubleshooting showed error messages in /var/log/samba/log.HOSTNAME coming up in 2s intervals: [...] Failed to connect to socket /tmp/fam-root- [2006/11/27 17:15:43, 0] smbd/notify_fam.c:fam_check_reconnect(136) failed to connect to FAM service Failed to connect to socket /tmp/fam-root- [2006/11/27 17:15:45, 0] smbd/notify_fam.c:fam_check_reconnect(136) failed to connect to FAM service [...] Adding "fam change notify = yes" to the global section of smb.conf solved the issue. As I don't have FAM but GAMIN (as required by KDE) installed, I suspect here some kind of incompatibility, which shouldn't make it to etch (hence the severity). My suggestion would be to have FAM notification off by default, and solve the underlying issue after etch release, should time be short.
