Upgrade to Samba 2.0.2 - Install Problem of MS Software
Hi, I've got the following problem: I am using samba 1.9.18 on a SuSE 6.0 Server with NT4/SP4 clients. I am running a database application that puts (as usual) some files (progs) on the clients and some files (data) on the server. The database is written in MS Visual Fox Pro. Now I tried upgrading to Samba 2.0.2. I set up Samba and everything seemed to work fine (could access shares etc.). Now the Database apps started to behave strange. I got warning messages about slow read/write inputs, application crahses etc. I tried to freshly install the MS apps. However this was impossible: Setup aborted after a while with the message of not enough disk space (wich is not true). Also , when I run setup again, it stops at different stages of the setup. Several setup screens that ask for input are never shown. After I downgraded back to 1.9.18 everything worked fine again. Any ideas? Hints appreciated .... :-) Thanks, Till
