[Samba] Memory leak in Samba with APW printing configuration ?
Hi, On Samba 3.0.2a on debian stable with a 2.6.5 kernel, each time I use APW to configure my printers, smbd takes more and more memory and the kernel does an Out of Memory (I have 512 Mo RAM). It's Xerox printers. Is the problem known (and corrected in 3.0.3rc1) or is it new ? Thanks for the answer. Cordialy, -- Yohann F.
Hi, im having an on going issue with authentication to machines connected to a samba domain. What im trying to do it connect to machines on my network which are part of a domain called ACADEMIC. When I put in \\machinename\c$ it prompts me for a username/password, even tho on this local machine (which isnt connected to domain academic) the username/password are the same (Administrator) So I put in the administrator username/password it doesn't take it. I then put in ACADEMIC/Administrator & password it doesn't like it either. The only way it does like it is if I put in machinename/Administrator & password. Looking in the samba log I cannot see any attempts to connect to samba from my machine or the machine im connecting to when I try the ACADEMIC/Administrator & password way. Is there something I can set in smb.conf or I need to set on my workstation or the workstation I am connecting to that would allow either straight administrator or academic\Administrator? With 350 machines I don't really want to have to connect to each computer using the machinename\Administrator rule. The main reason im doing this is to run audit services on each machine to find out memory/cpu etc, since I have about 350 machines over several sites its not practical to go to each machine and install software or to inspect each machine. Any help in the matter gratefully received. Ross McInnes

Can you provide more information? ps output, /proc/<pid>/status, etc.... And do you mean the printer properties dialog or are you really using the APW icon ? cheers, jerry - ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Hewlett-Packard ------------------------- hp.com SAMBA Team ---------------------- samba.org GnuPG Key ---- plainjoe.org/gpg_public.asc "...a hundred billion castaways looking for a home." ----------- Sting -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.4 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFAkIbcIR7qMdg1EfYRApHVAJ9CZvwXbCqo+G4ckNP3Kx5+GzHHCACeLI8F kIYmOpR38RqkNo2SJdqgvrk=o839 -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
