Hi all, I am having some strange problems with samba on one of my fileservers. I am using samba 2.2.1a compiled with qouta support and the quota patches. Kernel is 2.4.9 with quota patches. Everything seems to work fine exept some very wired things: If I try to save a document from word 2000 to a samba share the file can't be read afterwards by word. The file is on the server I can copy the file from there, but office can't read it. (the file is damaged) If I save a file not in w2k office format, and save it as office97 document everything works fine. (still from the same word 2k) I just say "save as" and change the document type. If I disable kernel oplocks it works with w2k format too. But the really strange thing, I have the same setup on 6 other servers and there it works perfectly. But now I am having problems storing outloook profiles on the server. The only difference I see between the servers is that one has a hardware raid 5 (this server behaves normally) and the other one has a software raid 1. Is it possible that samba conflicts somehow with the raid code ? Has anyone ever hat this problem and is there a solution ?

Hi all , i still have the problem i described some times ago but didn't get a solution. I have several File Servers running linux and samba 2.2.2 and since i upgraded i have a strange problems. I have compiled samba 2.2.2 witch quota support. nothing else special. I use samba in Domain mode. The following problem occures: Some of the users can't read files or directoris in their home directories. The windows explorer gets an timeout or sometimes even crashes. I can change in those directories in linux but when I say ls nothoing happens. No directory listing, I can't even CONTROL C. (like samba has locked these files) If I type smbstatus i get soething like this: 18738 DENY_WRITE RDONLY EXCLUSIVE+BATCH /usr/homes/mtd99017/sep5/09sep5w.pdf Mon Nov 26 15:12:17 2001 But the file is not longer in use by the user, in fact the user has logged of the system some time ago, but samba still maintains the file as locked. As soon as I stop samba and start it again the files are accessible again. But sometimes I can't even stop samba, not even with kill -9. I have to reboot the machine and everything works perfect for maybe two days the the same happens. I have the following config: Kernel 2.2.4 SuSE 7.2 Samba 2.2.2 compiled with --with-quotas Server is a PII 400 Mhz, 512 MB, 80 GB RAID 5 with Mylex DAC960 any help would be appreciated My smb.conf looks like that: (its the same on all servers exept name and shares) [global] workgroup = FHS-HAGENBERG encrypt passwords = yes security = DOMAIN password server = ad3 ad2 ad1 netbios name = MTDF4 socket options = TCP_NODELAY # wins sever = 10.21.0.26 os level = 0 wins support = no preferred master = no local master = no debug level = 0 log level = 1 mangled names = yes default case = lower case sensitive = no preserve case = yes short preserve case = yes oplocks = true level2 oplocks = True max connections = 0 max smbd processes = 0 strict sync = no large readwrite = yes # write cache size = 262144 hosts allow = 10.0.0.0/255.0.0.0 [homes] comment = Home Directories browseable = no read only = no create mode = 0750 [scratch] comment = Scratch Directory path = /usr/homes/scratch browseable = yes read only = no valid users = @jg01mtd @jg01cms @jg00mtd @JG97MTD @JG98MTD @JG99MTD @Staff @Personal create mode = 0777 directory mode = 0777 force user = scratch [exchangejg99] comment = Exchange Directory fuer JG99 path = /usr/homes/ExchangeJG99 browseable = yes read only = no valid users = @JG99MTD @staff @personal se97011 as create mode = 0777 directory mode = 0777 force user = exchangequota99 -------------- next part -------------- HTML attachment scrubbed and removed
