[Samba] Problem with Samba and Windows Terminal Server 2008
Hello all,
We have a Windows 2008 Terminal Server which people connect into to run their
programs. We are getting upwards of 60 people connecting in at any time. We are
seeing error messages from the application complaining that it can't access
one of the files on one of the shares. I have read that this problem is likely
to be due to the fact that we run one machine as a terminal server and there is
only one netbios host being used by mutliple people. The paper I have read from
HP refers to registry key called "MultiUserEnabled" on earlier
versions of windows terminal server needs to be set to 1 in order for the father
smbd process to recognise different sessions connecting from the one host.
The paper is at http://www.docs.hp.com/en/12131/Samba-TerminalServer_106.pdf
Previously we were using a WIN4LIN terminal server which assigned unique
hostnames to each users session.
We are not running a domain.
The samba server is a Solaris 9 box.
The samba verson is 3.0.9.
The config file is as follows. Its very simple

Note that I have removed a number of printer and other file shares not relevant
to this problem. The problem we are getting is on the "Progress"
share.

[Samba] Problem with Samba and Windows Terminal Server 2008
Ron Daniel wrote:> Hello all, > > We have a Windows 2008 Terminal Server which people connect into to run their programs. We are getting upwards of 60 people connecting in at any time. We are seeing error messages from the application complaining that it can't access one of the files on one of the shares. I have read that this problem is likely to be due to the fact that we run one machine as a terminal server and there is only one netbios host being used by mutliple people. The paper I have read from HP refers to registry key called "MultiUserEnabled" on earlier versions of windows terminal server needs to be set to 1 in order for the father smbd process to recognise different sessions connecting from the one host. > > The paper is at http://www.docs.hp.com/en/12131/Samba-TerminalServer_106.pdf >Oops - that's my paper. Sorry, I have not looked at 2008 for the parameter yet. FYI - for both 2000 and 2003 Microsoft delayed rolling it forward for a few years. Many customers were left hanging both times. So it is possible that the parm is not on 2008 - I did a quick google and did not get any hits, but they have changed the name for each release, so that is not definitive. I'll look around this afternoon and see if there are any clues that 2008 has a newly-named mulit-user parm. Eric Roseme
