Sirs,
Thank you for any time that you take to read about my problem.
I have a Linux (redhat) 8.0 mail server set up with;
qmail
dhcp / dns
transparent proxy to internet - adsl
HTML & our web pages (nothing special)
SAMBA
This problem has been with me since RedHat 7.3 and thir packaged samba.
If I transfer a file from the mail (linux box) box to a win98se box it takes
a minimum amount of time.
If I transfer a file to the mail box from a win98se box it takes enormous
amounts of time
for example a file of 100k from mail to win98 - 10 secs
a file 0f 100k from win98 to mail - 10 mins
(if it makes it and the process doesn't fail.)
error messages usually like : "The device does not exist on the
network...."
Smaller files of say 1-3k transfer without problems in reasonable amounts of
time.
The same problems occur when I map a drive from win98 to mail - except that
I can transfer slightly larger files (up to 75k) without the error/failure
messages. It still takes about 5mins to transfer the file.
Same goes when I use /usr/bin/smbclient \\\\win98name\c password - although
I can 'get' a file up to about 140k without any error messages.
I have tried the smb.conf with SO_RCVBUF to 32768, security user and share -
There have been no problems establishing network connections. Everything
appears to work just fine.
When I perform a /etc/rd.c/init.d/smb restart I do get a message for NBM
that is a little disturbing;
Shutting down SMB services [ OK ]
Shutting down NMB services /etc/rd.c/init.d/smb line 201:kill: (11313) - no
such process
Starting is all OK & OK
/etc/services (as advised in the Unofficial Samba HOTTO) has
netbios-ns 137/tcp
netbios-ns 137/udp
netbios-dgm 137/tcp
netbios-dgm 137/udp
netbios-ssn 137/tcp
netbios-ssn 137/udp
microsoft-ds 445/tcp
microsoft-ds 445/udp
As a matter of interest - qmail has the same problem.
This may not be a samba problem - but any suggestions that you may be able
to offer will be very well received (even rude ones)
Thank you again for reading through my dilemma

Danny,
The nmbd error is because you have Samba enabled as a Wins server so two
nmbd processes are started and your script is having trouble finding the
second one to kill. If you execute the shutdown command again you will see
the second process killed.
Your network problems sound like line errors. Try doing an 'ifconfig'
and
see if you are getting any errors on that network card.
HTH

I mean your problem is hardware. Specialy UTP cable wrong configured. UTP must have connected cable pairs 12 and 36 (45 78) not 12 34 56 78 When you have this cable missconf then only one way (12) work ok. Try test and change cable. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Danny Regan" <dregan@midfield.com.au> To: <samba@samba.org> Sent: Tuesday, November 12, 2002 9:58 PM Subject: [Samba] Slow network to samba machine> Sirs, > > Thank you for any time that you take to read about my problem. > > I have a Linux (redhat) 8.0 mail server set up with; > qmail > dhcp / dns > transparent proxy to internet - adsl > HTML & our web pages (nothing special) > SAMBA > This problem has been with me since RedHat 7.3 and thir packaged samba. > > If I transfer a file from the mail (linux box) box to a win98se box ittakes> a minimum amount of time. > If I transfer a file to the mail box from a win98se box it takes enormous > amounts of time > for example a file of 100k from mail to win98 - 10 secs > a file 0f 100k from win98 to mail - 10 mins > (if it makes it and the process doesn't fail.) > error messages usually like : "The device does not exist on thenetwork...."> Smaller files of say 1-3k transfer without problems in reasonable amountsof> time. > > The same problems occur when I map a drive from win98 to mail - exceptthat> I can transfer slightly larger files (up to 75k) without the error/failure > messages.

I had that problem 2 if you have wins enabled in samba turn it off and
restart smb 1 or 2 times and the error should disappear
Never got a solution to enable wins and get rid of the error went back to
7.3 for the moment
