Can't use Wireshark with a smbfs mount

[Jeanne Clément <c.jeanne () astellia com>]

Hi,

I've build a test platform with Linux Ubuntu and I want to capture and store pcap file directly to another server (Win7 
64bits).
I've installed the smbfs 2:3.4.0-3ubuntu5.6 package and mounted the share on /mnt/trace
mount -t smbfs //10.35.10.223/trace /mnt/trace -o workgroup=WORKGROUP,username=admin
Then I'm able to write a file in my share both from shell (mkdir test) and from a gnome app (gedit), but not from 
Wireshark. I got the message: The file "/mnt/trace/test/pcap" could not be opened: Value to big for defined datatype.

Therefore I use dumpcap that does the job very well (but without GUI): sudo dumpcap -i any -p -b filesize:512000 -w 
/mnt/trace /capture.pcap

Is there something wrong with this or is this a bug ?
