Hi,
I'm on a network with a Samba 2.2.8a fileserver + PDC (Mandrake Linux
9.0) and various Win2000 Pro clients.
Very often, when I log off from one client and log on a different one
soon after, I get an error message telling me that the remote profile
cannot be loaded, and the local one will be used, as if the profile was
still locked by the previous session.
One peculiar thing to notice is that, if I logon simultaneously on two
or more clients, I do not get any similar errors, everything works fine.
In syslog I found the following lines:
[2003/07/29 18:53:43, 0] smbd/oplock.c:oplock_break(797)
oplock_break: receive_smb timed out after 30 seconds.
oplock_break failed for file mdv/NTUSER.DAT (dev = 307, inode 449101, file_id
= 2965).
[2003/07/29 18:53:43, 0] smbd/oplock.c:oplock_break(869)
oplock_break: client failure in oplock break in file mdv/NTUSER.DAT
I did not set any option regarding oplocks in my smb.conf, I'm using the
defaults in this regard.
Can I work around the problem by using some particular smb.conf options,
or is it an unavoidable Win2000 client problem?
Thanks.
