Hello folks, I'm a newbie to this list, so please forgive me if I ask a question already answered. Yet having searched the web for a solution to my problem yields no results, so perhaps the question isn't that stupid: I have set up a small WLAN with a slackware 9.0 server. Samba 2.2.8 is installed and seems to work fine generally. I should add that I run it wrapped up by tcpd, not as a standalone demon. Accessing the shares from my m$ w98 clients, I encounter a significant delay (everything seems to freeze) of about 1 min. This only happens the odd time, although quite regularly. My network is, as far as I can say, stable. Name resolution is done via DNS (bins 9.0 installed on linux box) and WINS (wins support = yes on samba). Pinging my linux box yields instant replies, so no time should be wasted here. Any ideas anyone? TIA, Tobias
