I get this error not only at startup, but about every 30 minutes. System is 
RH9 full install with all updates applied. More details available on request.

Comment 2 Pedro Rodrigues 2003-04-17 08:35:04 UTC
Ok, after opening the bug report, and with more time, i found that i also get the error 
messages frequently. I have disabled kernel oplocks in the samba configuration file for 
now.

Comment 3 Jay Fenlason 2003-04-23 18:13:49 UTC
Please attach your /etc/samba/smb.conf file to this bug report so I'll have at
least some chance of replicating this problem.

This smb.conf file triggers the error

The smb.conf file has been migrated from Redhat 8.
This is the one of the errors it now produces:

[2003/04/23 21:11:47, 0] smbd/oplock_linux.c:linux_init_kernel_oplocks(287)
  Failed to setup RT_SIGNAL_LEASE handler

Another conf that produces the error msg.

Here's another one.  This is on RH9 w/all current updates (samba-2.2.7a-8.9.0).

Comment 8 hjl 2003-06-24 19:57:25 UTC
I have the exact same problem. It makes my samba server VERY slow.

A patch to fix samba

Samba uses signal 33 and 34, which may be used by threads.
This patch seems to fix it.

Comment 10 Bradd W. Szonye 2003-11-11 18:42:55 UTC
I started seeing this problem recently, when I installed the kernel-2.4.20-20.9 
and samba-2.2.7a-8.9.0 updates. I don't know which of the two updates 
caused/unmasked the problem. 

Comment 11 Bill Nottingham 2006-10-18 18:07:43 UTC
Red Hat Linux is no longer supported by Red Hat, Inc. If you are still
running Red Hat Linux, you are strongly advised to upgrade to a
current Fedora Core release or Red Hat Enterprise Linux or comparable.
Some information on which option may be right for you is available at
http://www.redhat.com/rhel/migrate/redhatlinux/.

Red Hat apologizes that these issues have not been resolved yet. We do
want to make sure that no important bugs slip through the cracks.
If this issue is still present in a current Fedora Core release, please
open a new bug with the relevant information.

Closing as CANTFIX.
