Samba 3.3.10 to 3.3.12 always NT_STATUS_INVALID_OBJECT

[Herwig Bauernfeind]

As reported by Galen Henderson on the samba-user@… list:

The problem is located in

http://svn.netlabs.org/samba/browser/branches/samba-3.3.x/source/smbd/vfs.c

lines 858 - 940

2 problems seen in the log:

1. Double in shared drives (possibly in line 905)
2. Comparison in line 932 possibly inappropriate for OS/2.

The problem is very easy to reproduce:

Set loglevel to 10 and start local Samba server and run

smbclient.exe \\127.0.0.1\share --user=root%....
dir
exit

You will see the error on screen. grep for "reduce" in logfiles for further analyses.
