Here's an interesting thing I notice between NTSP3 and Linux 2.0.33+ w/samba 1.9.18p8 [TCP_NODELAY, read prediction on, SND and RCV buffers to 64k, though I've tried 16k, 32K, 64k, max size 2k, 4k, 8k, 16k, no difference] When I copy a file from any share to my NT's HD, I get perhaps 280KB/sec. When I copy from NT HD to Samba share, I get almost 1MB/sec. Doesn't matter where

I went to the site to subscribe again and ended up watching some of Jeremy's Google interviews. I particularly enjoyed the interview with James and the bow tie lesson at the end. :) So anyway, I recently upgraded my home network to end-to-end GbE. My clients are Windows XP SP3 w/hot fixes, and my Samba server is 3.5.6 atop vanilla kernel.org Linux 3.2.6 and Debian 6.0.6. With FDX fast

I've got a W98/Samba LAN running with a 3Com OfficeConnect LANModem for shared internet access. Periodically, like every 10 minutes, it dials out, due to a DNS request for the workgroup/domain (same) name. Any fix for this? Can I just put a dummy address in all the host files?

Hi All, I am presently doing a small POC with rsync for incremental backup and restore starategies. I have come up with certain question down the line, can anyone help me with the explanation. Used the config and ideas from: http://www.mikerubel.org/computers/rsync_snapshots/ The commands executed on two machines in sequence Machine 1: root at Andruil:~# vim testfile root at Andruil:~# ls

Accessing the parallel port through wine is extremly inefficient: I have heard of people with 2 Ghz CPUs were the speed of the parallel port was still a lot slower than on windows. I have tried on an old Pentium 233 MMX and an AMD K6-2+ 500. Parallel port access is slow, CPU usage is at 100%. Parallel port access speed scales with CPU speed. I'm using the parallel port for an EPROM burner.

I've had several instances now on my mixed NT 3.51/4.0/Samba network where clients on Win boxes would enter a username such as "THisbites", and be denyed access. The account in /etc/password was capitalized as "THisbites" and the NT domain account shows in User Manager as "THisbites". Nonetheless, Samba refuses them access, and claims (on a debug level3 ) that

Linux 2.2.13 Intel samba-2.0.7pre2 will Sig11 and die on me right after processing NetBIOS name = FOO in smb.conf. Not always, but sometimes I have to start smbd 2 or 3 times. It always fails there. Any reason why 2.0.7pre2 would do this, and 2.0.6 (from rpm) never did? -- Edward Schernau http://www.schernau.com Network Architect mailto:ed@schernau.com Rational Computing Providence, RI,

Can anyone give a brief, english synopsis of how this works? I must be missing something obvious, or maybe there IS a need to have 2 similarly labelled config options. Or maybe I'm lost in the goldbergian method that this applies permissions (take the real perms, bitwise OR them with the mask, then apply all the permissions NOT given, etc. etc.) Help a dummy? -- Edward Schernau

Well I figured it out.. did not know that I could make a host file on the winblows client. I knew about the lmhosts file however.. this is a great list.. thanks to all.. *++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++* * Les Higger ITAF , * Local Area Network Coord. * lhigger@lausd.k12.ca.us * Francisco Bravo Medical Magnet High School * Los Angeles

Hi all, I have a mixed environment of Windows 2000, XP, Linux, and MacOS X clients connecting to various Samba servers. Our network is 100Mbit switched ethernet. Originally, we were using samba 2.2.8a, with the socket options of TCP_NODELAY SO_SNDBUF=4096 SO_RCVBUF=4096. However, the MacOS X clients (which were added after the initial setup and testing), had horrible file xfer performance;

I'll ask this again, as nobody has answered or addressed this issue yet. 2.0.7pre2 (although it has never worked) Intel Linux 2.2.13 Samba server serves as WINS server for 3 domains. It joined 1 of the domains using smbclient. security=domain I can see entries for the 3 domains in WINS.DAT, and entries for the 3 PDCs in WINS.DAT. On the same subnet as the samba server, there is an NT3.51

This only happens with PCs on the other end of a bridged 56k DDS line. It also affects DOS and W98 clients the same. Clients can log onto the domain ok, and browse. But trying to drag a file, or even right-click it in W98 explorer, cause the machine to hang, and eventually blue screen with a VREDIR VXD error. If I copy to Samba, sometimes it works, but then the file is zero bytes. Copying from

I've got a samba server, acting as 95 PDC, and WINS, on 1 subnet. It is routed to another subnet. All PCs use the same workgroup name. How can I get the PCs to all appear in Network Neighborhood? They all register with the samba/WINS server. "Find Computer" works, but only PCs in the local subnet are visible when you open NN. Any hints? I've tried "remote announce =

I have a Samba server 2.0.7pre2 on linux 2.2.13, which has joined a domain using smbclient. Security=domain, and all works well. It is configured to be the WINS server. PCs and NT boxes in this domain, plus the DCs and PCs in 2 other domains are set up to use this box as their WINS server. (this is Domain1) The PDC in Domain1 is the master browser (local and domain). Here is the problem: 2

We used syslinux package on IPCop with success to install from floppy, from cdrom, from usb key and pxe. I upgrade the distribution nine month ago from 2.11 to more recent versions (3.11, later 3.20). We add one consistent report of a laptop machine that boot with 2.11 but fail with 3.11 and 3.20 Symptom is that the machine don't display anything after loading the kernel and initrd. with

Is rsync speed limited to 160MB/sec read speeds due to the chunk read size? Or, are we seeing just a coincidence and the limitation is somewhere else? Rsync (single process) is used to locally copy files from one raid partition to another and we noticed rsync's read speed is limited. Whether I setup an rsync between two raid disks or two ram drives, rsync reads top out at around 160MB/sec.
