Description jason qian (e-mail address couldn't be found) 2006-02-03 15:09:24 UTC 
I find quite a lot of repeated errors in samba logs:

The first one is:
[2006/02/03 12:14:00, 2] auth/auth.c:check_ntlm_password(317)
  check_ntlm_password:  Authentication for user [nobody] -> [nobody] FAILED with error NT_STATUS_WRONG_PASSWORD

The second one is:
[2006/02/03 12:14:00, 0] lib/util_sock.c:get_peer_addr(1340)
  getpeername failed. Error was Transport endpoint is not connected
[2006/02/03 12:14:00, 0] lib/util_sock.c:write_data(554)
  write_data: write failure in writing to client 85.138.152.42. Error Connection reset by peer
[2006/02/03 12:14:00, 0] lib/util_sock.c:send_smb(880)
  Error writing 4 bytes to client. -1. (Connection reset by peer)

Are these errors are normal?

From a small peer to peer network of Win98SE, WinXPsp2 and SuSE 10.0

Let me know if I can provide higher level trace.

  smbd version 3.0.21c-3.1.4-SUSE-SL10.0 started.

These appear as normal errors to me.  Search the samba ml 
for previous discussions about this.
Comment 5 Björn Jacke 2006-12-21 09:15:59 UTC 
this one might be caused by keep alive packages samba sends out on port 445. Windows doesn't like keep alive smb packages on 445 and quits the connection instead. Try setting keep alive = 0.
