           Summary: samba does not work with bcm43xx and (wl_apsta.o) but
                    does with ndiswrapper
    Kernel Version: 2.6.17-rc5
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
             Owner: drivers_network-wireless at kernel-bugs.osdl.org

Most recent kernel where this bug did not occur:
Distribution:Gentoo
Hardware Environment:bcm43xx
Software Environment:samba
Problem Description:bcm43xx driver allows me to use all internet related
resources exept samba. I can list hosts specifically with smbclient -L HOSTNAME,
however it prints:
Sharename Type Comment
--------- ---- -------
IPC$ IPC Remote IPC
D$ Disk Default share
ADMIN$ Disk Remote Admin
C$ Disk Default share
SHARE Disk
session request to HOST failed (Called name not present)
session request to HOST failed (Called name not present)

Server Comment

Workgroup Master

Other XP laptops also cannot see the samba server I have running. (wl_apsta.o)
The exact same configuration works with ndiswrapper (bcmwl564.sys). (I can mount
smbfs)
Attempting to force mount complains about network not being able to authenticate
with bcm43xx, so this is definetly a kernel driver problem
Steps to reproduce:install samba, install 2.6.17-rc5 kernel and run samba and
attempt to mount a network share.
