Can you file a bug at bugs.centos.org? Or even better at bugzilla.redhat.com and provide us with the bug number there?
Thanks,
Ralph
Red Hat Bug 389021 opened on 11-17-07.
Near identical wildcard problem reported 11-16-07 after security update in Gentoo. See: http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-p-4509521.html?sid=e417b093d116b24b4bb819... FWIW, Gentoo bug number is 199450.
Unlike the ubuntu version of this problem, neither the RHEL3 nor the Gentoo bugs segfault nmbd.
The updated RHEL5 CLIENT does not exhibit the problem. The RHEL3 CLIENTS exhibit the problem after Centos3 or RHEL5 samba SERVER updates. All this is reversible by installing the old rpms respectively. The Gentoo issue is similarly reversible.
This looks like this could be a null pointer dereference issue caused by the samba security patch. Bug reports probably need to be upgraded a notch from low priority since a lot of people apparently have mixed linux-win networks and use linux-to-linux samba transfers.
regards,
