similar to: Explorer & MS Office hang

This was in regards to a problem with ms applications hanging on trying to open a file. Turns out it was an nfs locking issue.

I have a prerelease version of Samba 2.0.4 running successfully on MacOSX Server with encrypted passwords and domain security. (Thanks to help from Bill Chin and others on the list, and Jeremy Allison and rest of the samba team) I have just started work on testing Samba as a NT domain member, and want to know if I have the right ideas from my reading of the docs: With security = domain, the Samba

Hey, i build my first Linux Server in Oktober 2001. Everything works fine. At the end of Februar 2002 i got a problem. Please see the logfile. [2002/02/25 09:02:15, 0] smbd/password.c:domain_client_validate(1563) domain_client_validate: could not fetch trust account password for domain NENN [2002/02/25 09:02:47, 0] smbd/oplock.c:request_oplock_break(997) 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

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

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

Has anyone tried using Windows 2000 Professional with Samba? I'm checking it out now, and when I try to connect to a share, I get an error message similiar to the one you get with Win98 and NT4 with SP3+ with encrypted passwords. Does anyone know the equivelant registry path to set plain text passwords? The NT4 path doesn't seem to exist:

First... Hi. Im new in the list and I want to say Hello Second. Apologies because my english writing is too bad. I haven't problem to read. But the verbs and syntaxis when I write is too bad. I will try to read the list without write. I write now because I have a big problem. In this right moment Im downloading the entire archive lists and I will try to ask less. I have a samba server and the

We're running Samba 1.9.18p8 (non-PDC) on solaris 2.5.1. Everything works well except that file permissions are inconsistently assigned. Specifically, we are sharing users public_html directories which are mapped automatically by a policy when they logon a WinNT 4sp3 workstation so that a users can, theoretically, copy web pages from a diskette or other server to their web directories using

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

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

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

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

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.

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, 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. In the samba log file I am getting the following errors: [2004/12/03 16:31:33, 0] smbd/oplock.c:request_oplock_break(1026) request_oplock_break: no response received to oplock break request to pid 2181 9 on port 53336 for dev = 2c00002, inode = 297939333

we are running Samba 2.0.6 on a solaris 7 (intel) box. Users (about 270 at one time) connect to the home directories located on the samba server by NT 4 workstations .

We recently tried the upgrade to 2.0 Beta series (just finished testing Beta 4) on our network. Everything works fine with 1.9.18pl10, but once we start 2.0 in its place we start getting the following in the log files: [1998/12/17 05:00:12, 1] smbd/files.c:file_init(219) file_init: Information only: requested 10000 open files, 246 are available.
