Sorry to bother you, but I just came across this annoying problem. I've just upgraded samba on Debian and the result is that whenever I try to access a file using explorer on my Windows-2000 box it freezes. I can browse the directory tree without problem, but if I try to select a file it freezes. I've noticed the following errors on my Debian box: /var/log/samba/log.arthur [2004/10/15 23:00:11, 0] lib/util_sock.c:read_socket_data(384) read_socket_data: recv failure for 4.

Try 'use sendfile = no' Volker
he already got the answer on the mailing list, so closing this bug *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 1643 ***
oh, sorry, was not the same one on the mailing list but looked quite similar. If use sendfile=no does not help, please reopen :)
