Hi. My Fedora 5, Samba version 3.0.21b-2 hangs for a minuate then working fine. Do not have any idea why it happen. There are 10 Windows XP connected to the samba server for file access, but it not happening frequently. Can anyone help me? My settings are: [global] encrypt passwords = yes socket options = TCP_NODELAY SO_RCVBUF=8192 SO_SNDBUF=8192 max log size = 0 volume = Fedroa map to guest = Bad user security = share workgroup = xxx server string = PD netbios name = xxxx log file = /var/log/samba/%m.log # guest account = smbguest # smb passwd file = /etc/samba/smbpasswd hosts allow = 192.168.1., 127. send file = no readwrite = no [home] comment = Home path= /data/home browseable = yes read only = no writable = yes public = yes
