Description anonymous 2009-07-14 22:34:45 UTC
Recently we have upgraded our server from samba-3.3.5 to 3.4.0.
Everything seems normal except for a small number of clients still running Win98.

From a Win98 client, invoking "net use F: \\x093\tmp" gives the error message :

> Error 66: You have specified an incorrect network resource type. Your
> possible choices are (1) drive letter A: through Z for a shared directory
> path, or (2) port name LPT1: through LPT9 for a shared printer or modem path.

However, WinXP clients do not have the problem.

Is this really the complete log file?

[2009/07/15 10:46:52,  6] param/loadparm.c:6989(lp_file_list_changed)
  lp_file_list_changed()
  file /10/samba-3.4.0/lib/smb.conf -> /10/samba-3.4.0/lib/smb.conf  last mod_time: Wed Jul 15 10:39:49 2009
  
[2009/07/15 10:46:52,  3] smbd/process.c:1251(switch_message)
  switch message SMBtconX (pid 7061) conn 0x0

This to me seems that the interesting part is missing. What vuid does the client send? We assigned 100.

Can you please send a network trace of the failure? For those debugging purposes, please remove the "log file" parameter from your smb.conf file so that we get the whole thing.

Information on how to create useful network traces can be found under http://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Capture_Packets

Thanks,

Volker

Fix for 3.4.0

This should fix the problem. Win9x clients do a SessionsetupX/TconX pair, and we were not setting the vuid field correctly in the req struct passed down to chain_reply() after the sessionsetupX was successful.

Ahhh. Thanks, Jeremy! I had not thought about that one.
