Hello everybody. We had a Samba 3.024 on a old computer. It's disks begun to fail and we decided to replace the computer with a new one. I installed a Lenny and a Samba 3.2.5. I've two problems of slowness : * If I open a large pdf ( around 5 Mbytes ) on any computer and if I want to print it ( directly from the computer to the printer, we do not use Samba as a print server ) that takes a very long time for the first page to be sent to the printer. With the old server, that took only some seconds. If I transfer the pdf on the computer and print from it, all is perfect. * A software running on multiple computers is very slow since the setup of the new server. It has some data files ( 10 ) on the samba. These happend on every workstation or laptop we have ! When I navigate into the new Samba's shares, I do not notice any slowness neither when I open a document. I tried to transfer a huge file and It was done with a speed nearly my network card capacity ( 100 Mbits/sec ). The load of the server and it's memory usage are very slow. All shares are open read/write to everyone. Any idea to solve it ? This is my config file. Thank for your help. Michel. ==== [global] log file = /var/log/samba/log.%m passwd chat = *Enter\snew\sUNIX\spassword:* %n\n *Retype\snew\sUNIX\spassword:* %n\n *password\supdated\ssuccessfully* . include = /etc/samba/dhcp.conf obey pam restrictions = yes socket options = TCP_NODELAY encrypt passwords = true passwd program = /usr/bin/passwd %u passdb backend = tdbsam wins support = true dns proxy = no server string = %h server invalid users = root workgroup = workgroup os level = 20 syslog = 0 preferred master = no panic action = /usr/share/samba/panic-action %d max log size = 1000 [first_share] path = /home/samba/xyz force user = nobody force group = nogroup writeable = yes [second_share] path = /home/samba/abc force user = nobody force group = nogroup writeable = yes =====
