Description Bastien Nocera 2006-05-10 12:59:11 UTC 
+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #191271 +++

samba-3.0.10-1.4E.6

Sometimes clients wouldn't be able to mount shares exported from Samba. The
samba logs would show errors like:

[2005/12/14 17:52:53, 5] tdb/tdbutil.c:tdb_log(725)
  tdb(/var/cache/samba/gencache.tdb): tdb_brlock failed (fd=3) at offset 244
rw_type=0 lck_type=14
[2005/12/14 17:52:53, 5] tdb/tdbutil.c:tdb_log(725)
  tdb(/var/cache/samba/gencache.tdb): tdb_brlock failed (fd=3) at offset 244
rw_type=0 lck_type=14: Bad file descriptor

The upstream bug is:
https://bugzilla.samba.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3327

The attached patch is a backport from the upstream bug fix, tested successfully.
