similar to: Turning oplocks off, how to do?

Greetings All, I am trying to turn off oplocks and can not seem to figure out which parameters to use. I have tried setting oplocks = False in both the global section and in my share section. I have also tried setting veto oplock files = /*.txt/ in my share section. Each time I try this and restart the smbd program I get the same behaviour on the PC side. The file is cached on the PC side (I

Greetings All, I have tried everything I can think of and can not seem to stop the PC from cacheing a local copy of a file retrieved over a samba share. I have tried oplocks = false and also setting veto oplocks = /*.txt/ Whatever I try the PC still shows me the old version of a file after I modify it on the unix side. If anyone can see anything wrong with my smb.conf file please let me know.

All, Here is the output of smbstatus after I have opened up the file on the PC: /usr/local/samba/bin [184] ./smbstatus Samba version 1.9.18p10 Service uid gid pid machine ---------------------------------------------- dave dave staff 972 syscon2 (137.51.150.63) Tue Dec 15 15:43:27 1998 No locked files Share mode memory usage (bytes): 1048464(99%)

Hi Everybody, I seem to still be having problems with the caching of files on the PC. I have tried to set the oplocks = false variable in the smb.conf file but that has not seemed to help. Here is what I do to see the problem Open a file on the PC, the close it. Go to a unix machine and modify the file. Go back to the PC and re-open the file. I will get the old copy of the file for a few

Greetings All, I seem to be having a problem with files being cached, and I am 99% certain that it is not oplock related. I have set up my smb.conf file to have oplocks turned off and I think it is set up correctly. I believe this is correct because I then took that file and changed it to turn oplocks on and I did get different behaviour. With oplocks off an smbstat never shows any files being

Hi, I just installed Version 2.0.0-prealpha on a Solaris 2.5.1 machine. We are exporting one filesystem to the PC's. I can connect from my Win95 PC without a problem and I see all the files on the shared drive. If I bring up Windows explore and double click on a text file I can see the file without a problem. I then close the file and go to the unix box and change the text file. If I then

I have a two networks (across the country from each other) that are connected via ipsec through a Cicso pix. There is samba running on a Linux machine in the main office (call it office A) and users at the other office (B) need to get to it. After about three levels down, the response time back from the server is very slow (as it appears to be caching the directory listing). After as much as

11/09/05 I am/have been trying to get Samba working on my network for the past 5/6 weeks. All I want to do is connect two pc's so that I can access the necessary files between the two systems. First of all I know the two systems can talk to each other as I setup the to lan cards using WXP pro not using SAMBA. Since I can copy file between both systems I know that the connection is good and it

Hi Volker Finally I loaded the following configuration in our test environment [global] deadtime = 60 keepalive = 10 [dossiers] locking = Yes ; If yes, turns on byte-range locks. strict locking = No ; If yes, denies access to an entire file if a byte-range lock exists in it. ; posix locking = Yes posix locking = No

The kernel on my server appears to be refusing oplocks altogether. Setting 'kernel oplocks = no' resolved the issue. Is there any caveats I should be aware of? - Chris Wagner -----Original Message----- From: samba-bounces+chriswagner=amyskitchen.net@lists.samba.org [mailto:samba-bounces+chriswagner=amyskitchen.net@lists.samba.org]On Behalf Of Chris Wagner Sent: Wednesday, July 05, 2006

I've modified the contention limit in attempt to troubleshoot this, thinking that perhaps the client may be requesting multiple oplocks for whatever reason. The client is still not getting an oplock without specifying 'fake oplocks = yes'. I'm open to any ideas for troubleshooting. I've also checked to see if oplocks are explicitly disabled on the client, and they are not.

I have Samba 2.2.2 on Solaris 8 acting as a PDC. I have written a script that checks to see if a user is already logged in on the PDC and if so, sends the user a message (via the SMB message stuff) telling them they need to log off. I run this script using "preexec close" under the netlogon share. So, the user authenticates against the PDC, but then gets a desktop that is mostly

Hi, Active session (see with smbstatus) never die in my Server! I tried to use deadtime and keepalive unsuccessfully. I use 2.2.7a in Mandrake 8.2. with openldap 2.0.21 Thanks in advance.

Hi @ all, I have two samba-servers running perfectly! Now I configured a third machine which provides some backups. Since I brought it up in the network the windows client won't execute the netlogon-scripts... When I turn off samba-services on the backup-machine it works again. Did I miss something??? Maybe you can open my eyes... Best regards Sascha Here my conf-files: PDC

I thought I had this configured correctly, but it stopped working when I rebooted the other day. I looked through the archives and tried all the stuff that looked relevent, but to no avail. I have a redhat 6.0 server running samba-2.0.3, and a bunch of windows98 clients. I'm trying to serve a shared directory with basicly /tmp permissions and my printers. my server, Biz, shows up in the

I'm seeing some very slow setup times. Here's what I did. I started ethereal while things were running fine and then I waited until my windows box didn't show up in findsmb (I have keepalive set to "yes", so I don't see why it times out at all). I then went into "My computer" which was very slow. When I look in ethereal, I see some interesting nubmers in
