I've managed to semi-reproduce it again, although this time against a Samba server. I mounted it using "sudo mount -t cifs '\\192.168.1.130\Public' /mnt/temp" , and then while doing "cat /dev/zero >> /mnt/temp/temp" in another terminal, I called "shutdown -h -P now" through SSH on the Samba server. The terminal with "cat /dev/zero >> /mnt/temp/temp" is now hanging, and now I call "sudo umount /mnt/temp".
The only difference is that this time I can't get it to hang; it stops on its own after a while. I'm going to keep messing with it though. ** Attachment added: "dmesg" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/28538974/dmesg -- CIFS loops endlessly when remote host is down https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/373999 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to samba in ubuntu. -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
