I am running Samba with Winbind to authenticate against an NT 4.0 domain. Everything appears to be working fine. Problem is when I do response time comparison between file services on NT vs Samba, NT is twice as fast. The testing was a simple program that created 200 directories then deleted them, copied a 145 meg file then deleted it and then copied 779 files and then deleted them. Timestamps were taken after each action. Below are the results: 11/10/2001 12:46:26 PM~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 11/10/2001 12:46:26 PM Start Logging Linux... 11/10/2001 12:46:31 PM Created 200 directories in 5 seconds. 11/10/2001 12:46:35 PM Deleted 200 directories in 4 seconds. 11/10/2001 12:48:13 PM Copied g:\IS1117.txt in 98 seconds. 11/10/2001 12:48:14 PM Deleted g:\IS1117.txt in 1 seconds. 11/10/2001 12:51:22 PM Copied 779 files in 188 seconds. 11/10/2001 12:51:44 PM Deleted 779 files in 22 seconds. 11/10/2001 12:51:44 PM Completed Successfully! 11/10/2001 1:01:12 PM~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 11/10/2001 1:01:12 PM Start Logging NT... 11/10/2001 1:01:14 PM Created 200 directories in 2 seconds. 11/10/2001 1:01:15 PM Deleted 200 directories in 1 seconds. 11/10/2001 1:01:48 PM Copied g:\IS1117.txt in 33 seconds. 11/10/2001 1:01:48 PM Deleted g:\IS1117.txt in 0 seconds. 11/10/2001 1:03:01 PM Copied 779 files in 73 seconds. 11/10/2001 1:03:04 PM Deleted 779 files in 3 seconds. I found on the samba.org web site the PC Mag article that says that Samba is faster. The only differences I can find are that: 1. I'm using Winbind, and there is no mention of it in the article. 2. I'm running Linux on an os/390. ANY help is appreciated. Josh .~. /V\ /( )\ ^^-^^
Forgot to add that I'm running Samba 2.2.2-pre Thanks, Josh .~. /V\ /( )\ ^^-^^ -----Original Message----- From: Konkol, Josh [mailto:JKonkol@guidemail.com] Sent: Monday, November 12, 2001 9:43 AM To: samba@samba.org Subject: Samba with Winbind I am running Samba with Winbind to authenticate against an NT 4.0 domain.

Yes the NT server was a member server as well.
