copying files samba - win95: drops dead in the middle
When copying files from the Samba server to a Windows95 client or vv,
the speed varies dramatically. When I try to copy the same (20MB) file 10
times
some times it copies in less than 10 seconds. The next time it takes allmost
a
minute. And most worrying of all quite often the copying just stops halfway
in
the middle. The progress bar in Windows just stops. The traffic on the NIC
also
stops (the

win98 vs win95 with TCP/IP

I have been disappointed that I can't use Linux+Samba as an

The software we need runs in win9x.
We crave stability. But Linux+Samba is just much slower as a file
server.
It's normally quite fast: are you running over a
dial-up network, requiring you to adust MTU's for
speed???
If not, try ``socket

This is an artefact of the so-called ``opportunistic lock''

Erk! It's generally a bad idea to import data

FW: : Re: Multiple smbd processes generated
Dear Dave,
Doesn't this only work if you're using samba as a domain
controller and the client says "net use h: /home"
I've not got it to redirect "//server1/username" to "//server2/username"
when the NIS map says "user server2:/path/&"
Though if it could be done I'd be VERY keen.
