this error seems to inidcate a bad filedescriptor.

so i made a filesystemcheck assuming the error there.

[root@moby /root]# fsck /dev/hda5

/dev/hda5 is mounted.

Do you really want to continue (y/n)? yes

/home was not cleanly unmounted, check forced.

nothing suspicious here.

i thought the error must be on client-system side as it is an error by the
'lstat' system function. but how come that the fsck went fine and no other
programs are compaining - at least as far as i noticed it yet.

any hel appreciated.


best regards /
