I have installed a small Limux box in my local primary school, in order to sahre CD iso images. The system works fine, untill several w/s's concurrently access the same program , whereupon, we get spurious crashes. I have tried disableing op-locks, which seemed to help, but only slightly. Any suggestions gratefully received. Shane oplock_break: no break received from client within 30

I would really appreciate some help figuring out why one of my students has "disappeared" from the user list, and what to do about it. I'm using Samba3 on Fedora; the client machines are running WinXP. The system has been up and running since the beginning of September. Today one of my 4th-graders was unable to log on; she didn't read the error message carefully, so she

Hi there everyone! I'm using Samba 2.0.5a-19990721 on a RedHat 6.0 machine with Linux kernel 2.2.12. My system generally works fine, however recently I've had some complaints about some files being corrupted. The latest and best-handled to enable a debugging happened at around the same time. Both clients were using Windows95 OSR2 machines with Excel 97 SP-2. Two users reported the problem

We are running Samba 2.0.5a on an AIX 4.2.1 box, and since we upgraded from 1.9.18, a Windows 95 client reports intermittent problems (timeouts) when saving small files.

Hi! Even with 2.0.4, I'm still seeing a lot of oplock break failures (clients failing, see log further down). The client hangs for approx 30 secs (sometimes more) and then gets back online. At least one user can't use the file shares at all; it hangs whatever he does, and on any computer he uses (NT or 98, laptop, desktop...) Other users have less problems, but maybe they are less

I'm using samba 2.1 pre-alpha. When I right click an .exe file on the most shares, explorer freezes, and must be killed to recover. The problem doesn't show up on the home shares, but appears on any other shares I create. I've experienced this problem on many different workstations. Looking at the logs, it seems to be a problem with oplocks; the part of the log that seems to apply is

Dear Samba team. I have hybrid network with MSDOS / Win9x(ME) / Win2k/XP(NT) computers at home. I'm using Samba as PDC. W9x/me clients works fine as so as with roving profiles, but I'm experiencing problems with w2k, NT4/XP just not test because i'm testing on my box at home and when it'll work fine then I'll go to clients from which smaller part has XPs installed on PC.

Below are a number of errors that appeared in a log file today. I am running Samba v2.2.5 on a Red Hat Linux v7.3 system. The client experiencing/causing the errors below is a WinXP(SP1) machine. The log entries below pertain to 2 errors, the first in handling file "6.zip" and the second in attempting to run file "DiskeeperWks413zssi.exe". I didn't see the first

Hi all, I have the following problem. A Linux (2.2.19) machine is running Samba 2.2.2 as a PDC. The clients are Win2K SP2. A user accesses several Excel 2000 files on a share. This sometimes results in long(ish) delays (the user reports around 10 seconds, although this could be longer) and the message from Excel that the file is in use and can only be read. After closing and re-opening the file,

hello, until last week I had 2.2.1a in place, which, except some fox (dos) share which needed 'veto oplocks files', worked ok; upgraded to 2.2.3a with the same smb.conf (details below) and suddenly I started having oplocks problems (not on the dos share, that one is ok) with almost every other share (those hold windows files: programs, *doc, *xls): [2002/02/19 12:31:28, 0]

We're using CentOS samba for about 20 workstations, mostly XP, some 2000 and two win98. Samba shares a data directory with Word, Excel and Access documents/db's. Also Exact for Dos is running from this share (executable and data). The users experience a long delay every morning opening the first Word document (Word 97, Word 2000). This could take 10 minutes or so. If they close

I've used oplocks = no for a long time now, because of the famous "oplock_break" error, but I decided to give 2.0.7 a try.

Hi, I am running Samba 2.0.3 on Linux Kernel 2.2.5 (SuSE 6.1) in a test environment with a Win NT server (PDC), the Linux box taking over step by step the file- and printserver tasks, and Win 95 clients. Samba is setup with security=domain at this stage. It just happened again what I have seen only a few times before. When I use Outlook 98 on the Win95 machine and want to access the
