Code: Select all

smbd[2990]: inotify_add_watch returned Bad file descriptor

smdb - The smbd server daemon provides file sharing and printing services to Windows clients. In addition, it is responsible for user authentication, resource locking, and data sharing through the SMB protocol. (this daemon supports CIFS/SMB)

inotify_add_watch - inotify detect file system modifications, add_watch selects which files you want to monitor.

Bad file descriptor - Well something wen't wrong, could be all sorts of reasons (file is locked, bad file name, who knows)

So that was probably not very helpful.

If I had these errors I'd have a look for underlying errors. Is the disk out of space, run fsck etc. Possibly SMB/CIFS is out of synch with the actual file system (for instance you configured CIFS to share a directory and subsequently deleted it). After that I have no concrete suggestions.
