>Description:

I have a program that opens a file, mmaps it and the closes it. The
mmaped data is then used. This program works if the file is on a local
file system, but not if the file is on a remote XP box. If I don't
close the file, then it all works as expected (until I run out of file
descriptors). The program fails with SIGSEGV as soon as tries to
access the mamped memory after the file is closed.

>How-To-Repeat:

  fd = open (filename, O_RDONLY);
  fstat (fd, &sb);
  memory = mmap (NULL, sb.st_size, PROT_READ, MAP_FILE|MAP_PRIVATE, fd, 0);
  close (fd);
