I am using Samba for a file server and get a lag when accessing files across the network, I assume it is due to inactivity, because the first file I access takes the longest to access, and then other files I access immediatly after are much faster. If I do not access any files for a while I get the problem again. It all works well, but I would really like to get rid of this Lag when opening a file from the server. Does anybody have any suggestions. Please keep it simple, new to Linux ;) Steven -------------------------------------------------------------------- Disclaimer This e-mail transmission contains confidential information, which is the property of the sender.

If it is not set, it defaults to "user". Are you able/willing/etc to use "security = domain"?

** High Priority ** Thanks Keith This seems to solve the problem, would you mind explaining, what causes the delay, and if I wanted to have user security is there a way I could do this without incuring the delay?

** High Priority ** Not usre where to find more info or what info you are looking for, but glad to try if you give me some pointers where to look. not sure if this helps but using Suse 9.0 with Samba version 2.2.8a on the file server and accessing it through a Win2000 client I used all the default values, assigned, when using the YAST wizard under suse, except for the change I made from user to domain security, which seems to have solved the problem, or gotten round it at least.

Do you know where to get more information about this bug checking? I'm curious now.
