Hi list, Since I've upgraded from Version 5.0 to 5.1 i have strange problems with samba. Since 5.1 the connection from a XP client to the samba server disconnect often, especially then i write a file to the share after some idle time.

Some informations of my config.

The Box is a Samba PDC for a little Windows Domain with a ldap backed. I used this config on Centos 4.x and 5.0 without problems.

For 5.1 i installed a new server and copied the config 1:1 to the new hardware. Since then i have this problems.

Here a part of the /var/log/messages:

Maybe this is a part of the problem?

smbd[12910]: Denied connection from (0.0.0.0)

and this ?

smbd[12867]: [2007/12/13 15:25:29, 0] lib/smbldap.c:smbldap_open(1014) smbd[12867]: smbldap_open: cannot access LDAP when not root..

Any suggestions?

Thanks, Sebastian
