samba2.07,nt4sp6a I run a samba-server with 15nt-clients on a 100MBit-Switch. Now I faced extremely poor performance and really have no idea why. I even dont know if it can be a samba-problem. When copying myriads of small file from a client to the server or vice versa I get bad performance: 1000 files a 16kb: ~80seconds = 200kb/second But this is highspeed compared to copying from nt to nt:

I'm thinking about upgrading our NT4-clients to XP in the near future and I want to know how well XP is supported by SAMBA in the recent samba-versions. I found many single statements in usenet, but I wonder if there is a kind of XP-FAQ out there. (The one at samba-page is very outdated) Especially I need to know how well XP integrates in a existing NT4-domain (samba as PDC). Then I need

I'm just migrating a medium sambainstallation from old samba2.2.8 to new samba 3.0. The server is acting as PDC and there is no BDC. The new samba is based on LDAP and is already successfully tested. Now I need to transfer the whole old smbpasswd to the new ldap-style to convert users and machines with minimal effort. Especially I dont want to break the relations between the machines and

while looking for a solution for webbased access to our samba-servers I found a recommendation towards using DAV instead. I just took a first glance at DAV (www.webdav.org) and find it very interesting. Are there any documentes comparing these two strategies in intranet and internet (speed, reliability ...) I would also be greatly interested if anyone here uses DAV to allow roaming users to

By now we had running samba as PDC and fileserver for about 20 NT4-clients with roaming profiles. Now we start migrating NT4-clients to XP-clients and as I found out roaming userprofiles between XP and NT4 is not possible (NT4->XP works, but not vice versa). So I just thought about cloning all the profiles (docs and mails are not in the profiles so only bookmarks, adressbook and

I'm just migrating a whole samba-installations ffrom old 2.2 to 3.0 with LDAP. I was successfully able to migrate all useraccounts with smbldap-useradd but now I'm stuck with the machine-accounts. All machines are part of the domain and they should be able to logon the new server without noticing any difference. I can add them with smbldap-useradd -w but the resulting ldap-entry does

A productional system (linux) running samba 2.2.5 runs 'cracy' from yesterday. There are lot of 'odd' behaviours. People cant logon or cant logoff. Access to files fails. Examining the logs the most eyecatching events are: (not that the keynumber started at 959 and went slowly down. I did not wait until it goes to zero and let the user reboot its machine before) Any idea ? thnx,

Hi I actually had this same problem when running up samba originally. Check that the user has a valid unix acount and that you have added that to the folder share/valid users section.

I'm using samba 2.2.3a as fileserver and domaincontroller for 12 NT4-clients (sp6a) and occassionally - when a user tries to logon - there comes the following messages on the nt-client: - No Windows NT Domain Controller is available for domain XXXX. There are currently no logonservers available to service the logonrequest. - and - server-side profile not available. The OS tries to log you on

We use rsync a lot to backup various stuff over bigger distances and its my project to look deeper into this backups to optimize backup. While its easy to make rsync print the size of the files it is transferring I didnt figure out how to determine how much bytes are actually transferred per file which is even more interesting. If I sync a whole data-structure with 100.000 files lets assume 1000

I use to sync several servers with rsync for years now. One strange thing I still havent figured out: while rsync does its job perfectly will, it cant refuse to transfer all files with "index.html" in it, even if the files havent change. example: the following files are the same for years, but every night rsync copies them again:

When syncing huge data-folders (~50GB) with a remote server on a daily base I frequently (every 2nd to 3rd time) get the following error: Read from remote host goldfisch.at: Connection timed out rsync: writefd_unbuffered failed to write 4092 bytes: phase "unknown" [generator]: Broken pipe (32) rsync error: error in rsync protocol data stream (code 12) at io.c(1099) rsync error:

Is there a trick to copy files via smbfs and keep uid/gid/permissions? Usually uid/gid/permission of a transfered file depends on the uid used when mounting the remote share. But maybe there is a trick/patch whatever ... background: I'd like to use a linux-based NAS to backup loads of files *including their permissions and uid/gid*. The NAS supports NFS (which can do what I want) but the

I have a very strange problem and I'm doomed. In a samba-domain with XP-clients certain users cannot logon to some computers. The user tries to logon but *immediately* gets the message "you cant get logged on. please check username and domain and retype your password" (translated from german) on the XP-machine. In the samba-logs (Loglevel=2) it says: [2009/05/19 16:47:16, 2]

still trying to solve my domain-problems (from time to time I get 'domain controller cant be found' on a special sambaserver 2.2.3a) Why does samba complain about wrong password for user nobody ? I actually found "nobody" in smbpasswd, but I'm not sure if I put it in there and dont understand why nobody needs to be samba-user. imho nobody is the unix-account under which

Hi, I am trying to get sieve working on a new OpenSuse leap 42.2 install. On my 'old' OpenSuse 13.2 machine it worked fine. The problem is that Managesieve can't access the script store and won't let me create any script. It says permission denied on ~/sieve directory. See log below. I 've activated debug logging, but that doesn't give any clues to me. Also, I've

Hi, I've noticed every time someone does an rsync-request on my ftp-site (which also provides rsync as mirror method), rsyncd creates a filelist. This is a quite IO and CPU intensive procedure, especially for things mirrors like FreeBSD with lots of little files. I was wondering... is there a way to cache that filelist? Our mirrors are updated once, or twice a day, it could speed up

Hi, I get my Email from my own SMTP server on the internet using "fetchmail". Some time ago I did the smart thing and configured dovecot to use SSL and the letsencrypt certificate that automatically renews. Welllll..... a few days ago my certificate expired and the fetchmail deamon running in the background had nowhere to complain. So I didn't notice. It turns out that dovecot
