CIFS Windows share HPUX

[Kurt Beyers.]

Hi,

I've got a HP-UX server running HPUX11.0 with the CIFS client A.01.09

A Windows 2000 share is mounted on the HP-UX server using the CIFS client, but the mapping gets inaccessible from time to time with the following error:

Jul 16 08:54:06 HPUX_server vmunix: NFS lookup failed for server Windowd_server: RPC: Remote system error.

A bdf still shows the mapping however and after a logout and logon, the user can access the share again.

Any ideas what is causing this problem?

best regards,
Kurt

Seeing it just dies for no apparent reason, I would first be looking at patching specifically for NFS.

Following errors are logged in the client-log file of the CIFSclient when the share becomes inaccessible.

What is he trying to say with the 'signal 10' that seems to cause the problems?

where is the cifsclient log file?
I've been hunting all over for it.
Thanks.
