[Samba] Windows XP Machines (well mostly the XP ones) hanging
Hello Folks, I will personally send $50(AU) of Pizza to anyone that solves this one :) We have a network comprising approx 30 Windows workstations all logging in to a samba machine running as a PDC. The main exported file system is an NFS mounted file system, but this was happening back when this was an xfs file system as well. ACL's are enabled. We are running Samba Version 2.2.8a. The server does not appear overloaded. Multiple users have reported that when they are trying to access files across the network their machine hangs for approx 20 secs then continues as normal. This does not happen every time, but does happen quite frequently. Our network is not displaying a significant amount of packet loss. Below is our Samba configuration.

if your pdc network card is reporting ANY packet loss I would replace it pronto!

This may or may not help, but I've installed about 25 XP machines onto a W2K network and experienced the exact same thing - slowdown and then all of the sudden it's fine. I don't believe it's a Samba thing, but an XP thing. Search google or your engine of choice for 'XP slow network' or something like that and you might get luckier. -----Original Message----- From: samba-bounces+sdkelly=twcny.rr.com@lists.samba.org [mailto:samba-bounces+sdkelly=twcny.rr.com@lists.samba.org] On Behalf Of James Jeffrey Sent: Tuesday, June 10, 2003 5:25 AM To: samba@lists.samba.org Subject: [Samba] Windows XP Machines (well mostly the XP ones) hanging Hello Folks, I will personally send $50(AU) of Pizza to anyone that solves this one :) We have a network comprising approx 30 Windows workstations all logging in to a samba machine running as a PDC.

This does not happen every time, but does happen quite frequently.Can you get a sniffer trace from their machine at the time this happens ? It's probably the only way you're going to reliably track this down. Jeremy.
