Hi all!

Does anyone know the solution to this weird problem/bug in Rails?  
(alternate link: [http://rafb.net/paste/results/82f7Wc85.html](http://rafb.net/paste/results/82f7Wc85.html) )

#in my helper

#this is a ruby module we created that can open a directory via samba  
using login & password  
require ‘testlogin’

output = “Login with Admin: " + Testlogin.testlogin(”“, “Admin”,  
“admin”, “smb://10.168.1.133/Data”).to\_s + “  
”  
output += “Login with Admin: " + Testlogin.testlogin(””, “Admin”,  
“admin”, “smb://10.168.1.133/Data”).to\_s + “  
”  
output += “Login with Wrong: " + Testlogin.testlogin(”“, “Wrong”,  
“admin”, “smb://10.168.1.133/Data”).to\_s + “  
”  
output += “Login with Admin: " + Testlogin.testlogin(””, “Admin”,  
“admin”, “smb://10.168.1.133/Data”).to\_s

#in my view, i get this result  
Login with Admin: 1  
Login with Admin: 1  
Login with Wrong: 0  
Login with Admin: 0

If i run the Testlogin in the terminal it works as aspected (returning  
1,1,0,1).  
It seems something (rails? samba?) stores the samba-connection if the  
login fails.

Seems to be a bug somewhere, right? Anyone have an idea?
