Re: CIFS - VFS error question

Hi all,

thank you for great communication with you, I was not hoping that
someone will actually answer me.
This looks to me that we are not yet doomed:)

and anyway where is the network in perfect condition...am I right? :-)
however I am not aware of any outage, depending how much network this
needs. Packets are lost here and there everyday...
This doesn't seems to be a trouble problem as nobody is complaining
but this bothers me because it fills my /var/log/messages and informs
me every time. I first saw these messages and didn't find any
explanation for them. I thought that it would be nice to have a
comments on the errors so if also other people get error they can look
it up in Wiki or somewhere.

I think that in the Internet are plenty of questions but not real answers.
And to be it reliable message I though you guys could make something
because you are the ones who can:)

Steve already explained very nicely "cmd 50 response" which is time
out on listing files, directories and others. Which i know can occur
in network disturbance.

Here are again the errors still getting:
 kernel:  CIFS VFS: Send error in Close = -11.
 kernel:  CIFS VFS: Send error in SessSetup = -5.
 kernel:  CIFS VFS: Unexpected lookup error -6.

I have not checked running CIFS on newer kernel version yet. I ll have
to find some servers first.
I thought this is something that I could ignore or filter from my
messages as this I thought may be let's say access denied or
connection closed by other side but again if I do that I just think if
i m not going to miss some big problem then.

Thank you all,

Best Regards,
Robin Cernin
