Samba 3.0.9-2.3 on Suse 9.2
I'm still getting errors copying to my samba box: Often the first attempt
to copy to it fails seemingly before it's copied anything. When this
happens, there is a zero-length file created with the right name. If I
retry the copy immediately and reply Yes to overwrite the zero-length file,
it usually proceeds without problems.
Many times the copy just goes fine with no error.
The error dialog that pops up is always the same: Specified network name no
longer available.
This may be new:
This is the first time I've seen this in the messages file:

No, I take it back, there was a similar occurrence on April 2 copying a
large file.
I had oplocks=off in my smb.conf and commented that statement out in an
attempt to wring a little more performance out of this dog. Do I need to
turn oplocks off? Are they on by default?
Is the global section the right place for the oplocks option?
