[Samba] WinXP needs a lot of time to read files from Samba Share
Hi! After installing a SuSE 8.0 Enterprise with Samba 2.2.3a, I've a lot of trouble with accessing files on my configured Samba shares. If I want to open a file on one of the shares with a double click in the Windows Explorer (WinXP) it needs exactly 50 seconds (!!!) to REALY open that file. If I use an application - the file will be open immediatly. Another problem is, that I've now the same problem with files on my Windows XP harddisc. If I close any samba share on Win XP - anything is fine, but after reconnecting to the server the problems come back. Under Win98 I don't have any problems with the Samba shares - it must be a Win2000/WinXP problem. OK, there is a FAQ at samba.org, that there is a problem with 2.2.0 and Win2000/WinXP. But I'm using 2.2.3a. And I'm using my old smb.conf from a Debian distribution with 2.2.3a without any changes (and that configuration works fine with WinXP). I tried to compile Samba 2.2.5 - no problem, but I cannot start the daemon (exit code 255 without any error message). I'm a little bit frustrated... Here is the config file:>[global] > workgroup = LAN > netbios name = MARS > server string = LAN Server > interfaces = eth0 > security = share > log file = /var/log/samba.log.%m > max log size = 50 > socket options = TCP_NODELAY SO_KEEPALIVE SO_RCVBUF=8192 \ > SO_SNDBUF=8192 SO_KEEPALIVE SO_REUSEADDR > dns proxy = No > wins support = No > guest account = thoralf > read only = No > guest only = Yes > guest ok = Yes > hosts allow = 192.168.10.0/255.255.255.0 > hosts deny = 0.0.0.0/0.0.0.0 > >[tmp] > comment = Temp-Arbeitsverzeichnis > path = /data/tmp >#eofCan somebody help me?
