[ILUG] Strange samba issue

[Brian O'Mahony]

I have found

[2010/05/20 11:25:36, 1] auth/auth_server.c:check_smbserver_security(363)
  password server ANIMAL.CURAMSOFTWARE.COM rejected the password:
NT_STATUS_REQUEST_NOT_ACCEPTED

However the windows admin is telling me that he cant find anything in the AD logs, Also the fact that it is working intermittently for me, im not sure where to go with troubleshooting.  Im not entering any password, so why is the authentication working one minute, and not the next.

Problem is these are live servers so I cant do very much mucking about.

Strange, can you see anything strange in /var/log/messages? The output of dmesg?
Samba logs? Netstat? yum logs?

I recently upgraded some of our Clearcase VOB servers here to RHEL5. As part of the process, I moved the VOBs to SAN based storage, and reduced the number of machines down to one. We are using the samba included with the OS (RHEL5.4), and this is configured to authenticate versus active directory. This has been working fine for many year.

Today we are seeing some issues when trying to connect (via clearcase, or just running \\ccvobdubpr<file:///\\ccvobdubpr>), it fails with :

'No More Connections can be made to this remote computer at this time because there are already as many connections as this computer can accept.'

However it comes back intermittently. I cannot find a max connections parameter in smb.conf. There is about 40 smbd processes running.

Any one have any ideas?
