Has anyone here installed samba on sco? I might have to install samba on a SCO 3.2 v 5.0.5 server and was wondering if there might be any complications, I'm used to freebsd so I'm not sure what I'm in for.
Man, if you only just use FreeBSD to replace that SCO machine huh? I have a binary distro of Samba installed on SCO 5.0.5. It works just fine execpt the daemon falls a sleep a lot. I have it running in Standalone mode and not by inetd. I'm not sure it that has anything to do with it. I think i found the binary from samba.org Better yet, I just found a link where someone claims to have 2.0.7 for sco -----> ftp://ftp.tekno-soft.it/samba-2.0.7.sco5.tgz <----- Maybe this will solve the sleeping issue. When it doesn't repsond, i just keep refreshing the browse list and it finally connects. Hope this helps, Steve Maroney steve@olafsolutions.com On Mon, 5 Mar 2001, David W.

GCC is much better than SCO cc. I never see the sleeping issue that you are say, I've see the sleeping only when writing several Mb on the disk thru Samba or other process because during this writes the system need to sync the fs with the journal. This operation require much time, in proportion of the Mb writed. Do you see the same problem on other SCO version different than 5.0.5 ? Bye! Roberto Fichera.
