[Samba] max smbd processes on a per user or machine basis?
Ive got a problem here which Im still debugging. My samba server (2.2.4 on solaris 8, with acl support) ran out of swap space when somehow on user had over 500 smbd processes (something to do with an rsh from a unix to an NT which then connects to the samba server). I understand that each user should have one process per service that they are connected to, is this correct? I need to put in a config option that will stop the problem reoccuring until we work out what has happened. max smbd processes would almost do what I need, but I think I need to restrict on a per user or machine basis as I want other users and machines to be able to continue. Any Ideas BB
