similar to: Win2K and Samba

For some strange reason, a samba setup which was previously working has suddenly stopped working, and I can't figure out why. The symptoms is that attempts to write some files onto a samba filesystem take a long time, and then error out with the error message (in Windows dialog box): "Cannot create or replace <filename>: The specified network resource or device is no longer

Hello. I have been having some major troubles lately with samba and winbind. The last 5 posts I made, no one has responded. I did some looking around, and in the last several months it seems that very few people are getting any assistance at all on this list at all. Why is that? I haven't needed this list in years, but it used to be very different. Is there another place a person can

Hello, i am running Samba 2.2.3a on a Red Hat Linux 7.3 box with kernel 2.4.18-10. I am experiencing some problems on a particular samba share, which is accessed by 10 Windows 98SE clients working on a COBOL production packet by mapping with a G: letters this samba folder. Well, some times a day it happens that this packed blocks because some files on that samba folder remains locked; i

I'm running samba 2.0.7 on Solaris 2.6. We've have terrific success for well over a year with samba until about a week ago I started receiving reports that users could not open MS Office docs saved on a samba share. The samba logs are full of information about oplocks like this: [2001/03/07 10:14:04, 0] smbd/oplock.c:request_oplock_break(1204) request_oplock_break: no response

I saw a little discussion about this a few weeks ago but nothing concrete. We're running samba-1.9.18p8 under Solaris 2.6x86. I am periodically getting the following in the logfiles, usually _many_ at a time: 1998/11/03 14:42:00 request_oplock_break: no response received to oplock break request to pid 5411 on port 40884 for dev = 1980040, inode = 33c4d When I look up the PID (in this case

Hi all, I've posted a similar message a few weeks ago. I had the 'oplock' problem. I run a linux server with samba (specification below). I get a reply who told me to disable kernel oplocks and oplocks. I did exactly what he told me to do. I hoped it worked... but it did not... From there one i started reading in the archives and followed the 'lock' discussions in this list.

I hope someone can enlighten me on this. Situation: NT network, Samba PDC, about 20 NT 4.0 workstations. log(s).smbd are created per machine for easier analysis (as log.smbd.<NetBios Name>). Not often, but often enough to be of concern, are errors in request_oplock_break that seem to indicate that another smbd process that should be listening for break requests on a UDP socket

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

Hi, I've got a Samba server here that runs great! I've got an NT machine on my laptop and I can interface with the Samba server directly in any way I want, except for one thing: When I try to install a program (Visio) as a network shared app, the installation always tells me "I've determined that the target drive doesn't support long file names" after I choose to

Hello, I've been running samba 2.0.7 for a couple years now on a DEC alpha with Tru64 4.0D. I't pertty much a default smb.conf as far as oplocks & that sort of stuff. Anyway, the other day some users started having troubles with saving ms-word files. The smbd processes have always been running as root. But now the users with the problem own their smbd process. And they get

Hi Alexander, Not sure if this of any help, but we had a similar problem with runaway SMBDs and what seemed to be oplocks. We are running RH6.2 with 0.7.26 ACLs. After much messing around and hassling Jeremy, I eventually changed the kernel from 2.2.19 to 2.2.20 and recompiled everything from scratch. Since then we have not had one of these rogue processes. I think Jeremy was right when he

Hello, I am running Samba 2.2.2 with acl-0.7.16 on RedHat 6.2 (2.2.19). The PDC is a Windows 2000 Server and the Samba server is a domain member using Winbind. All the workstations are Windoze 2000 Pro with SP2. Everything seemingly works fine but every day or two I get a runaway SMBD process which hogs the CPU and becomes unkillable. The only resolution is to reboot the server completely.

Hello, last friday I switched my users from an old server running 2.2.12 to a new one running 3.0.10 (that I've been testing myself and with smbtorture). After a while I had to switch back to the old server because some users were having serious problems. This is one of the logs (the others are very similar): [2005/03/04 12:25:05, 0] tdb/tdbutil.c:tdb_log(725)

Hi, Has anyone any ideas what is causing my smbd processes to crash? The files being accessed via samba are on an NFS mounted directory.

Hi all, We have a HP-UX 11i server running as a samba server. Users use Windows 2000 boxes with Service Pack 4 to connect to the samba server. Several days ago, we upgraded samba server from 2.0.7 to 3.0.5, and we started to experience the following problem: The general connection and access to the samba server is ok. However, under the samba share there have been some directories mounted from
