I just tried to reproduce this failure on an openSUSE 10.2 x86_64 system
with samba3-3.5.1-42.suse102 running.

-----8<------------------snip--------------8<--------------

----->8------------------snap-------------->8--------------

The configuration is quite simple:
-----8<------------------snip--------------8<--------------
[global]
workgroup = TUX-NET

log level = 10
log file = /var/log/samba/log.%I
max log size = 0

[tmp]
path = /tmp
writeable = yes
vfs objects = recycle
----->8------------------snap-------------->8--------------

So I was not able to reproduce this issue.

Could you please provide your smb.conf and the output of 'rpm -qa | grep
samba'?

Thanks in advance!

Cheers,
Karolin
