Hello, Sometimes 'ypserv' uses a lot of CPU in our Samba machine. Here is a capture of the output: load averages: 7.11, 4.71, 4.18 19:19:03 242 processes: 2 running, 3 waiting, 102 sleeping, 133 idle, 2 zombie CPU states: 20.0% user, 0.0% nice, 80.0% system, 0.0% idle Memory: Real: 100M/242M act/tot Virtual: 98M/824M use/tot Free: 664K PID USERNAME PRI NICE SIZE RES STATE TIME CPU COMMAND 339 root 49 0 2576K 286K run 555:17 9.40% ypserv 31855 root 48 0 2792K 475K run 0:04 6.40% top 18945 root 42 0 6712K 802K sleep 0:00 4.90% smbd 21485 root 42 0 8824K 720K sleep 0:26 3.00% smbd 10979 root 42 0 6712K 860K sleep 0:02 2.20% smbd 19264 root 44 0 6712K 819K sleep 0:01 2.00% smbd 30196 root 42 0 7752K 1097K WAIT 0:05 1.80% smbd 15749 root 44 0 7152K 942K sleep 0:06 1.70% smbd 29536 root 44 0 7856K 1032K sleep 0:05 1.60% smbd 12550 root 44 0 7288K 950K sleep 0:05 1.60% smbd 16628 root 44 0 6712K 843K sleep 0:01 1.60% smbd 15165 root 44 0 6568K 745K sleep 0:00 1.60% smbd Any idea about what's happenning? Other servers running Samba doesn't have this problem? (OS = Digital Unix, Samba = 2.0.6). Note: 2.0.7pre3 has the same problem. _____________________________________________________________________ o o o MANEL Rodero | Laboratori de Calcul FIB o o o TGS TIC (Analyst) | Campus Nord - Modul B6 o o o Laboratori de Calcul FIB | Jordi Girona, 1-3 U P C FIB - UPC | 08034 Barcelona (Spain) | Email : manel@fib.upc.es | Tel : +34 93 401 6943 WWW : http://alabi.fib.upc.es/~manel | Fax : +34 93 401 7040 _____________________________________________________________________
