[Bug 264943] Re: gvfsd-smb crashed with SIGSEGV in strlen()

[Richard Wooding]

On my Iomega Home Network Harddrive 500gb NAS I experience the ERRHD 39
bug after applying the patch.

I would love to file a new bug report to have it looked at, but I need
some hand holding, in describing the error in the correct terms.
Especially since you have to first patch the first bug before the second
one is revealed. If somebody could help me with the description and any
other things I need to do get the second bug report right I would
appreciate it. I am weary to file a bug report with help.

>From the discussion I get the feeling that there is a real possibility
the CIFS server implementation on my Iomega NAS is faulty. Note this:
this NAS is marketed with Linux compatibility as a selling point on the
packaging!!

I have logged an open issue with Iomega and pointed them at this thread,
as well as the related debian and samba ones, I have requested that they
investigate the possibility that their CIFS server implementation is
faulty and release a firmware upgrade for their customers.

If anybody does file an additional bug report I would like to bring them
in on that thread as well.

As I can reproduce the bug, can somebody get back to me on the correct
way of filing the second bug report.
