Hi everyone! Background ---------- Have set up a Samba server with an MS-DOS client, running DEC PathWorks 5.0. The client boots from a disk just to get it on the net, then it continues booting from my Samba server. Works ok! Error description ----------------- The client has the volume name D: for the connection to the server. There is a program running as a daemon on the client. The daemon receives data that are written as a file to D:. The file can be seen on my FreeBSD box, but when it seems to have been transfered, it says it can not write to D: and then the connection is totally lost to this volume on the MS-DOS client. Running the same thing, with a connection to a WinNT server instead, though works ok. The daemon on the client, when con- nected to WinNT, prints out, for an example: "File transfered: D:\TDIS_in\file.dat, Size: 645.5 kb." My question ----------- Can it be that the MS-DOS-daemon tries to make a DOS system call, asking for the size of the file it just did put on D: (on my FreeBSD computer), and this DOS system call crashes the connection as my filesystem on FreeBSD apparantly is a none DOS file system? I hope anyone can be of some help, and thanks in advance! Best regards, Paul To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
