Copied from my reply upstream: ------------------------------------------------------------ OK, installed that. It does force a disconnect.
The first time I try to reconnect I get an error "Unable to read", presumably the client doesn't know its friend has died. The second time I connect OK. Not been able to try that with a windows client, but it does resolve the problem with the ubuntu client. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/886953 Title: smbstatus does not reliably detect that a samba connection is in use.
