NBREQ called name is not ...

[xerox]

Sometimes I notice a strange error in the log files.
I think it has something to do with CIFS, But i'm not sure.
I also don't know when the error happens because no users so far complained about it.

the log:

11:04:12,804 ERROR [org.alfresco.smb.protocol] Closing session due to exception
org.alfresco.filesys.netbios.NetBIOSException: NBREQ Called name is not this ser
ver (SERVERNAME)

1332)
        at java.lang.Thread.run(Thread.java:595)

Can someone give me more information about this error?
When this error happens?


friendly regards

Hi,

When a NetBIOS session is setup there is a callers name and a server/service name in the session setup request. The Alfresco CIFS server is reporting that the service/server name in the session setup request it received does not match the CIFS server name, so it's rejecting the session request.

Cheers

Gary

I'm getting this error when trying to connect with smb client on Mac OS X to 2.1.0E CIFS on Solaris 10:
13:51:53,980 ERROR [alfresco.smb.protocol] Closing session due to exception
org.alfresco.filesys.netbios.NetBIOSException: NBREQ Called name is not this server (PERFORCE)
        at org.alfresco.filesys.smb.server.SMBSrvSession.procNetBIOSSessionRequest(SMBSrvSession.java:920)
        at org.alfresco.filesys.smb.server.SMBSrvSession.run(SMBSrvSession.java:1369)
        at java.lang.Thread.run(Unknown Source)

Windows and Solaris clients can access the CIFS server fine.
Is this a bug interacting with Mac clients?
