As for the log files, the inotify errors did the same thing to me (default size is 5M, and I got 100+GB log files) -=Andrew -----Original Message----- From: samba-bounces(a)lists.samba.org [mailto:samba-bounces(a)lists.samba.org] On Behalf Of Mike A.

The log file repeatedly had this information [2010/04/29 04:00:01, 0] smbd/notify_inotify.c:inotify_handler(240) No data on inotify fd?! about a billion times. In my smb.conf Ihave max log size = 50 set, so I was hoping the log file wouldn't get that big. -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/options/samba -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/options/samba

Not sure if it's indicating a broken kernel inotify system - but the inotify handler really shouldn't get called if there are zero bytes to be read. I'll fix up the debug message in the master tree.
