Hi, i can watch movies from my samba shares, but if i use xmms to play wav files and for example listen some seconds to every song the connection dies after a few songs. even ls gives me "input/output error", i can remount the share just after it was dead....but its just a question of time. ive tried different hds, different filesystems (xfs seems to perform better then reiserfs in my case) and updated to 3.0.7....no luck. harddisk encryption with reiserfs/xfs shouldnt be a problem to samba if it worked with the rest of the system before? i can copy the music with scp at about 10Mbyte/s. Any ideas?
