Hi, We are using a samba server as a NTLM authenticator for our web filter. However, Samba closes the SMB connections after 60 seconds of inactivity, causing connections from the web filter to the Samba DC to get stuck in CLOSE_WAIT state, and failing to authenticate the users. Is the some way, other than changing IDLE_CLOSED_TIMEOUT, or (in Samba 3.0.23) commenting the check that closes the TCP connection if there is no connections active and a timeout bigger than IDLE_CLOSED_TIMEOUT, to keep the TCP connections opened, despite the inexistence of open pipes or connections? Att, Robson Paniago

Hi, As far as I can tell, deadtime sets the time of inactivity when there are at least one share or pipe opened, which is not the case - there are no resources in use. BTW, I already tried with deadtime=0.
