samba - Sep 2001 - Hi!

Hi!

Is there's any special configuration in the file smb.conf for increasing the
performance of the samba server 2.2.0 ? Because with the default setting
"socket options = TCP_NODELAY SO_RCVBUF=8192 SO_SNDBUF=8192" , the
writing
time onto the disk is around 1MB/s .

Thanks,

Tony Nguyen

A brief introduction on me before I start on the problem!

I am a sys admin working in the UK, I have administrated and set-up windows
networks, Novell networks and administrated Linux Networks before.

I have used Samba on a 9x network before very successfully, I now work for a
'proper' company and they use 2k Pro and XP Pro on the network as well
as
9x.

I am trying to use Samba as a PDC, there are no Windows Servers on the
network
so it should be ok, I have follows the Samba Project Documentation to the
letter (at least once), my 9x clients can log in with encrypted passwords so
everything is
fine. However I cannot 'promote' an NTx box (i.e Win 2k Pro, XP Pro) in
the
domain, I get the following error: "The remote procedure call failed".
I am
using version 2.2.6.

Any ideas???  :o?

Thanks

Michael Sage

To All,

Just to let you know the solution to the problem I was having!

I feel very silly now, looks like it was a problem with  my smb.conf domain
admin group. I have just added root to it and promoted a machine using root
instead of my super user and it works.

 Oh well, you live you learn.

 Frank et al thanks for your help. :o)

 Michael
