Thanks for the report. I had a report yesterday about the name length check failing together with DFS use, this was fixed by applying this patch : http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-cifs/msg13458.html Can you try that patch and confirm if it fixes the issue for you too ? regards ronnie sahlberg ----- Original Message ----- From: "Jack Hill" <jackhill@xxxxxxxx> To: linux-cifs@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Friday, 27 October, 2017 8:13:27 AM Subject: long name length protection triggering when it shouldn't Hi, I believe that I'm having a problem where the checks in 5ed70f7db9afe5e4e5cc1fa2239676e3b2d2c5b2 for file name length are triggering when they shouldn't be. I see this problem on a normal Debian Stretch system where the patch in question was introduced in Debian's linux-image-4.9.0-4-amd64 kernel. I believe that the errors about file name length are erroneous because I see no problems when using a prior kernel. As an added twist, I only see this problem when using the sec=krb5 option. If I use sec=ntlmv2, the problem does not occur. I am looking for advice on how to troubleshoot further. More information can be found in a post I made to a different list about this issue <https://trilug.org/pipermail/trilug/Week-of-Mon-20171023/077662.html>.
