This bug is closely described in http://bugs.debian.org/388282 We needed time to narrow it with our user. It finally turned out that smbd panics in his setup (smb.conf file attached) when he add the deprecated option "Only user = Yes" in his [homes] section. A level 10 debug log is attached also
Created attachment 2166 [details] smb.conf file which triggers the PANIC
Created attachment 2167 [details] level 10 log of the panic
Created attachment 2168 [details] proposed patch This panic is actually correct. First "only user" is deprecated, I think that y\ ou wanted to say 'valid users = %S'. Then, the manpage for "only user" says Enabling this parameter will force the server to only user the login names from the user list and is only really useful in shave level security. As you have user level security, "only user" does not really make sense. If you\ _want_ to use it, you also need the "username = " option in your share definit\ ion. The attached patch turns this panic into a debug level 0 message. Volker
