I'm not big on replying to myself but I wanted to at least in case somebody
else ever runs into this problem.
After trying to recreate the issue we discovered that there was a link that
someone had placed in the filesystem that went through the WAN to a now
defunct machine. After removing the link everything is running better than
ever.
I'd like to take the time to thank the only person that tried to help me
over the last few weeks...Thierry ITTY.
Regards,
Tony

I'm running samba on an AIX 4.3.3 server which has NT4.0 SP6a clients
connecting. Since I've had so much trouble with it I compiled 2.2.4 with
GCC on the server and it didn't do any good. Grasping for straws I had our
netadmin come over and help me interpet what kinds of errors we were
receiving.
The symptom of the problem first off is that when the clients are browsing
the shares they initially take 30-60 seconds to come up (if even at all).
Everything works fine once connected (but is still way too slow).
I was hoping that some common issues could be detected from at least some of
these errors so that I can try to get this sorted out. Any information on
any part of this would be helpful, really.
Here are some of the notes from our pow-wow...this is traffic between my
client and the server while trying to open up a share off of the samba
server.
------------------------
no such file desktop.ini
srvsvc starts
account was null and the domain was null dest AIX -> source ing-nt-dc
Negotiated
connected
disconnected .02 seconds later
pulled desktop.ini
ACK took too long to respond
possibly insufficient buffer space on one side or the other
2 alerts
WINS lookup performed
tried to connect null again
tried to to connect ing-nt-dc/IPC$
tried to pull netlogon -> SUCCESS
RPC 5.0 BIND
Lots of peramaters transferred
netlogon called -> requests challange
three way handshake request and response
connects and disconnects.
Some NetBIOS traffic is detected but cannon be encoded
at the same time/soon after we get a window frozen error
Then oddly enough a NetBIOS session request and confirmation
negotiation begins
connection is made to share as proper user
WINS traffic
TCP stuff
NETBIOS 76 bytes of user data
confirms session
Negotiates anon
three way handshake is asked for again and then closes down

I did see that there was a reccomendation to run smbd somewhere other than
inetd. I'd like to script it something like Linux but the rc files are set
up differently. If there is anybody that has set this up on AIX I would be
interested to see how.
Thanks for your help in advance.
