I tracked it as far as an ioctl call for creating what looks like a protocol block. I don't have the time to trace into the kernel right now, and it doesn't look like anything in the smbtools userland has changed in quite a while. Can we assume that you checked the obvious things, like making sure that the system isn't running out of memory? Does this happen with a GENERIC kernel? Are you sure the kernel matches the userland? Also let us know if you can recall when it stopped working. And for what it's worth, I don't get such an error on -STABLE. -- Lowell Gilbert, embedded/networking software engineer, Boston area http://be-well.ilk.org/~lowell/
