Hi, I have a samba server joined to a Win 2000 domain. It all works fine except that for some reason if a Win2KPro client has a file/folder open overnight (or for a long time), then they are disconnected. I can't find a relevant timeout setting when browsing through swat. Anyone got any ideas? Thanks, Alistair. _________________________________________________________________ Hotmail now available on Australian mobile phones. Go to http://ninemsn.com.au/mobilecentral/hotmail_mobile.asp

(he said without knowing squat really, i'm still just learning too), under unix networking options... -----Original Message----- From: samba-bounces+mwestern=affairs.net.au@lists.samba.org [mailto:samba-bounces+mwestern=affairs.net.au@lists.samba.org]On Behalf Of Al Doofbanga Sent: Wednesday, April 16, 2003 11:56 AM To: samba@lists.samba.org Subject: [Samba] File shares seem to timeout?

i've just enabled it on my webmin here and it wrote the following in my conf
file:
[global]
keepalive = 60
that 60 is the number of seconds according to webmin....

Hi Mat,
Hmmm is that in swat somewhere? I'm running samba from Solaris, what is
webmin?
Cheers,
Alistair.

Hi,
I have a samba server joined to a Win 2000 domain.
It all works fine except that for some reason if a Win2KPro client has a
file/folder open overnight (or for a long time), then they are
disconnected.
I can't find a relevant timeout setting when browsing through swat.
Anyone got any ideas?
Thanks,

Hi, Anyone else got any ideas on this? Mat suggested keepalive however that's not it. I am talking about file shares timing out over longer periods of time (hours). The environment is a Solaris server running samba with Win 2000 clients accessing the file share. They are all part of the same domain. Any suggestions much appreciated! Alistair. ================= Hi, I have a samba server joined to a Win 2000 domain.
