I'm having a problem keeping Samba from doing a full directory scan for
direct file access. The directory I'm going to has 100,000+ files in it, so
directory listings are very costly. The pertinent info from smb.conf is:
mangling method = hash2
case sensitive = Yes
hide dot files = No
mangled names = No
All the files in the directory are 8.3 compliant. I have to set the log
level up to 10 or so to get it to show what it's doing, but it makes the
following calls to is_in_path for every file in the directory when a single
file is accessed.
[2003/03/07 12:27:13, 8] lib/util.c:is_in_path(1145)
is_in_path: 03adb1ba.dcm
[2003/03/07 12:27:13, 8] lib/util.c:is_in_path(1150)
is_in_path: no name list.
Any ideas how I can force Samba to go directly to the file instead of doing
a directory listing first?
