similar to: Samba performance on FreeBSD

I'm getting samba setup, and it seems to be working. I have PDC/BackupPDC issues to resolve, and want to change things so the NT PDC authenticates users instead of setting them up using smbpasswd. Right now, I can access the samba box from Win98 and WinNT workstation with "manually setup" smbpasswd's. I have been testing performance and am a little disappointed, I hoped samba

Synopsis: samba 2.0.6 running under FreeBSD 3.3-RELEASE is much faster than the same running under FreeBSD 3.4-RELEASE, even after replacing the 3.4-RELEASE kernel with the 3.4-STABLE kernel. (This has been reported to FreeBSD GNATS as "kern/16605") I have 2.0.6 running under FreeBSD using the following smb.conf: [global] workgroup = <NT Domain> server string =

Greetings, out of fun and to investigate claims about alleged bgfsck resource hogging (which I could not reproduce) posted to news:de.comp.os.unix.bsd, I pressed the reset button on a live FreeBSD 5-STABLE system. Upon reboot, fsck -p complained about an unexpected softupdates inconsistency on the / file system and put me into single user mode, the manual fsck / then asked me to agree to

I wouldn't report this if not for one coincidence (which is described below). I have too little facts, so this is more of a mystery problem tale than a real problem report. There are two systems: 1. old, slow, i386, UP, 7-STABLE 2. new, fast, amd64, MP, 6.3-RELEASE Systems are located at different physical locations. What is common between them: 1. they both have the same backup strategy

Here's a patch against 4.8-RELEASE kernel that allows disk writes on softupdates-enabled filesystems to be delayed for (theoretically) arbitrarily long periods of time. The motivation for such updating policy is surprisingly not purely suicidal - it can allow disks on laptops to spin down immediately after I/O operations and stay idle for longer periods of time, thus saving considerable amount

Ok, so I ran fsck manually (even with -y), but yet it refuses to clear/fix whatever to the questions posed as fsck runs. What does this all mean?

There's a big thread about filesystems on postfix-users@postfix.org Could you shed some light on that issue? ----- Forwarded message from Wietse Venema <wietse@porcupine.org> ----- From: wietse@porcupine.org (Wietse Venema) Date: Sun, 3 Feb 2002 07:53:26 -0500 (EST) To: Lawrence Greenfield <leg+@andrew.cmu.edu> Cc: Wietse Venema <wietse@porcupine.org>,

Postfix <http://www.postfix.org> does a chattr +S on its spool directory when it is installed on Linux. This is what is written in the postfix startup script -- # # LINUX by default does not synchronously update directories - # that's dangerous for mail. # if [ -f /usr/bin/chattr ] then CHATTR="/usr/bin/chattr +S" else CHATTR=echo fi -- Is this still required on ext3 ?

Hi, Recently I've decided to play with gjournal. Main reason was a promise of avoiding full fsck check after unclean shutdown. I've successfuly configured gjournal on existing filesystems (all UFS). And then it happened - my system had a power failure. After boot, it forced me to run fsck manualy. Nothing special, I did it before... But this time it failed on gjournaled disks.

Dear All, I posted the following message to the Freebsd-questions mailing ================================================================= <snip> On my laptop I've being using linux for some years now and "landed" at last to the gentoo distribution which I tuned for working with the statistical software R and the bunch of TeX programs such as latex, pdflatex, context and

Hello! I have a samba fileserver (Debian Woody, Samba 2.2.3a) that I am trying to join into an NT domain (smbpasswd -j ...); the command says that it joined the domain successfully. Then I setup security=domain, workgroup name etc. as outlined in the samba howtos. However whenever I try to access a share on the Samba server I am prompted for a password (even though I already logged in through

Created an "add machine" script that basically looks for an unused uid/rid, and then creates a stub LDAP entry for the machine; the first time I issue "net join", the script is invoked and creates the LDAP entry correctly, but the join operation fails nevertheless: f1sa:~# net -U winadmin join winadmin's password: [2006/09/08 10:19:40, 0] utils/net_ads.c:ads_startup(191)

Hi there, System is FreeBSD 4.9 Stable Had a problem during a portupgrade that when portupgrade did some cleaning a directory could not be deleted because it were not empty. However, it was empty. rm -rf didn't help either. Because I didn't know what to do I decided to boot. At system startup fsck was started which produced the message: unexpected softupdate inconsistency and also that

I was using a GELI partition for /usr/home on 7.0, so it attaches and mounts on boot. The problem is it stopped working after the system was upgraded to RELENG_7/7.1-PRERELEASE. Here's how it goes: I have the following /etc/fstab: /dev/ad0s1b none swap sw 0 0 /dev/ad0s1a / ufs rw 1 1 /dev/ad0s1d

Hi everyone, I have a problem with my samba and winbind configuration: before I switched the config (from local user authentication to AD authentication using winbind) my users were able to authenticate for example as ?peter?. Now, after switching, they are forced to use SAMBASERVERNAME\peter. If they use only ?peter? winbind tries to authenticate them against the AD which fails. Is there a way

Hi there, I've been trying to run Terminal Services using wine and it seems to work but it's sloooow. I'm running dual boot system with Caldera Workstation 3.1, Windows2000 Professional and Wine 20011106. Any ideas or success stories? Here some output lines: wine --winver win2k "MTSC.exe" fixme:imm:ImmAssociateContext (0x00010025, 0x00000000): stub

Hi, I have a Dell T710 with 4 X 10G ethernet interfaces (2 X Dual port Intel 82599 cards). It is running FreeBSD RELENG_8 last updated on July 13. What I see is packet loss (0 - 40%) on IPv6 packets in vlans, when the machine is not the originator of the packets. Let me try to describe a little more. If a neigbouring machine ping6 it, there will be packet loss. If it act as a router for ipv6,

Hi again, I changed from 3.4.5 to 3.3.10 after an AD upgrade to 2008R2 and prinitng is working mor ore less but it is incredibly sloooow. My server has no remarkable load so it is not due to hardware bottlenecks. Are there any ways to 'tune' 3.3.10 or any tricks to make it faster ? cheers ~christoph -- /* Christoph Beyer | Office: Building 2b / 23 *\ * DESY
