Hi, I have installed the current HP binary package (based on samba 2.2.5) on our HP file server. We have the problem that all XP clients (not W2k or NT 4) need endless time to open a share. Has somebody some hints ? All other windows versions are working well. Thanks, Peer _________________________________________________________ Max-Planck-Institut fuer Biogeochemie Dr. Peer-Joachim Koch Winzerlaer Str.10 Telefon: ++49 3641 57 6705 D-07745 Jena Telefax: ++49 3641 57 7864
Try disabling the WebClient under services of the XP clients. XP first tries to use webdav to connect to the share when that times out it will then use smb.

Near the sign or seal registry tips would be a good place imo. Did anyone test the difference in connection times? At my location we use kixart scripts to connect to 10+ shares when logging on to the smb PDC, any tips?

Is there something similar (or the same) in win 2000 which I could disable ?

There is not anything similar in Win2k. If it is taking a long time to connect then there is something else wrong. It could be dns problems or something else. Try increasing the debug level for a while to see if samba is reporting some problems.

There could be some dns problems, or nmbd might not be running, but it should not take that long unless the server is really loaded.

Make sure you have not inadvertently enabled the XP firewall on your network interface - if you can see a small padlock on the icon in Network COnncections, check the Security tab in Properties. Alos, check your IP Security Policies inside Security Policy in Control Panel/Admin Tools - look for XP defaulting to using encryption etc. Set it to open.
