Once upon a time (around Tue, Mar 23, 1999 at 11:56:22PM -0800 i think)
Russ Steffen told me :

> The shares mount fine, and work for well under "light" loads, but when
> under stress (like a BRU or tar backup, find, or anything that does a lot
> of directory scanning) the share "disappears" (ie. the top directory
> suddenly appears empty save for . and .. ). The share is still mounted
> according to mount, and df still reports the correct capacity and usage.
> The only way I've found to recover is to umount & remount it.
>
> The syslog is absolutely silent on the subject the only oddities I've
> found are a couple of messages like:
>
> Mar 15 17:31:49 saturn kernel: smb_dont_catch_keepalive:
> server->data_ready == NULL
>
> - and -
>
> Mar 19 19:51:52 saturn kernel: smb_statfs: dskattr error = 5
>
> However, they don't correspond to the event. They appear at a times when
> the mount was healthy and there is no error logged at the time of death.
>
> Other relevant info:
> Kernel 2.0.36, observed on both SMP and UP.
>
> I've observed this on shares mounted from both NT Server 3.51 SP5
> and 4.0 SP3.
>
> smbclient (via smbtar) has no problems on these shares, it's just smbfs.
