Hello, We've had serious performance problems loading AutoCAD R14 .dwg files from a VAResearch VArServer 3000 (dual 400MHz PII, Red Hat 5.0, SAMBA 1.9.17p4, 256MB RAM, 36GB RAID5). The problem is that on first access, trying to read the .dwg file is very, very slow -- a 10MB .dwg file loaded from an NT4.0sp3 server using a win95 station using AutoCAD R14 and SoftDesk AutoArchitect takes in

Hi everybody! We've a legacy application based on Clipper, very important for the company. And we want to share the database and program files through a samba server with Gentoo Linux. But, when the users mapping the resource with a Windows 98, 2K or XP client, the application run VERY VERY slow. This application has been shared with Windows 98, 2K or XP and run too much faster than Samba.

I have a Rootserver-> V-Server -> vpn-> samba connection. -1 GBit/s-Port: Granted 200 MBit/s: MAX 1 GBit/s: ... Using vpn direct I get the maximum speed of the local internet connection about 6MiB/s Using samba the maximum speed is about 2,6 MiB/s for a single download and twice 2.2MiB/s for a double download Upload is the same as my internet connection 1MiB/s I increased the speed

Hi All! Any ideas to config file to get more speed to samba filesharing, I am already using following in smb.conf: log level = 1 socket options = TCP_NODELAY IPTOS_LOWDELAY read raw = yes write raw = yes oplocks = yes max xmit = 65535 dead time = 15

Subject: Samba takes some time to wake up.... Hi folks, We are using Samba-2.0. with RedHat 5.2 on a PII-350MHz and RAID SCSI HD as a domain-logon-server. The clients are Win 95 Pentium PCs connected by ethernet. The problem is: Samba takes a long time, i.e. 1 min, to let the first user log on in the morning. After that the response times are reasonable.

First off I want to thank everyone who is working and contributing to Samba. I have installed FreeBSD on a Pentium PC and have compiled samba with gcc. I have it working and can post shares of printers and drives but have ran into a problem. I read through the documentation several times and can't seem to find the answer. When I open a document for any Windows-based Apps and try to save it.

hi All, We have a glusterfs cluster with 5 nodes on Ubuntu 12.04 amd64.

Hello ! I'm having serious problems with Samba's writing speed (both 2.0.5a from RH 6.1 and 2.0.6 compiled from sources) on a 100Mbit network. If I write a file with block size 65487 or less, then the writing speed is about 7-8 MB/s - a very nice value, my bow to the Samba team :) If I change the block size to 65488 or more, then the writing speed falls down to 3 MB/s, which is not what

Hi list, we're having some problems with our Samba Server based on Debian Eth with Samba version 3.0.24. When a user copies a file to a share the performance is just about 10-15 MBits/s. Doesn't matter what OS the client uses. The server itself has a 1 G connection. Both are directly connected to the switch so there couldn't be a buggy cable/box between them. When i measure the speed

Hi, I am unable to log into samba anymore since I upgraded to 2.0.3. I've attached my smb.conf below and I've even gone to trying the CVS releases to see if one of them will help.

Hi, I am using a TCP link that requires TCP window size to be at least 256K. Below is my smb.conf file. I have tried to capture the packets using wireshark after the configuration.

Hello, I am running FreeBSD 4.0 and Samba version 2.0.4b. I am trying get my smbpasswd+samba password to synchronize. At this point when I run smbpasswd <user> as root it will change the samba password and update the UNIX password as well. Problem is, that a user running smbpasswd at his shell prompt or using Passwords (from Control Panel) will not change the smbpassword and not update the

What's the current state of the art with this black magic? It looks like there are a vast number of tuning options and the ones that typically show up in advice are: socket options = TCP_NODELAY IPTOS_LOWDELAY read raw = yes write raw = yes oplocks = yes max xmit = 65535 dead time = 15 getwd cache = yes some of which may be the defaults anyway. One thing in particular that I'd like to

greetings list. am serving SMB using the samba-3.0.24 package on an openbsd 4.1-release machine and am seeing really low throughput from the server, even when both the server and client are on gigabit ethernet. the maximum throughput i've been able to attain is ~6 MBps, which is pretty slow, both on 100 Mbps and 1 Gbps segments. this top speed is identical on both 100 Mbps and 1 Gbps.

I have configured Samba + Winbind + AD. Currently my windows domain consists of 2 servers and all the samba settings I have it on one of them. How I can do so if one server fails windows, work with other Windows server? I have only to add to server2 to the password server option in my smb.conf? Use: samba-winbind-3.0.33 + 3.0.33 My krb5.conf: [Logging] default = FILE: / var/log/krb5libs.log
