similar to: Re : Re: performance problem ??? AN ANSWER PLEASE ...

Hi, I got a similar problem with my test configuration. I am using share drives from my AMD Athlon XP 1600+ / 512 DDR RAM running with NT4 workstation and my linux server is a Slackware 8.0 with kernel 2.4.18 and Samba 2.2.4 running on a Pentium 166 MMX / 128 RAM / U160 40Gb SCSI disk. My problem is a bit different. I get well a lot of performance but my connections often break. So I can well

I have a new Debian testing machine running the Debian Samba 3.0.5. Everything seems OK except that I cannot get users to have domain admin rights. I have Windows XP workstations. The workstations join and log onto the domain fine. A "net groupmap list" yields: server:/home/tnolen# net groupmap list System Operators (S-1-5-32-549) -> -1 Replicators (S-1-5-32-552) -> -1 Guests

Has anyone had success with Appcac Plus (Dos) running on a samba machine? If so, any particular lanpak and version requirements? How about locking - I'll assume oplocks off (like NT). Thanks, Steve -------------- next part -------------- HTML attachment scrubbed and removed

I'm running Samba with automount to automatically mount CDs in a server. These CDs need to be changed periodically, so I wanted to use automount so that they could be changed by the users fairly easily. We use logon scripts to map the CDs to drive letters when users logon. Unfortunately, it seems that having a drive mapped is treated like the drive is being used, so as long as there is

I've got an issue with remote files being deleted after the local file has been deleted. For some reason, this isn't happening. I'm running rsync 2.5.6 protocol 26 (yes, I know there are newer versions, but logistics dictates that I can't upgrade right now). I have used the --delete, --delete-after, and --ignore-errors options in all sorts of combinations. An example of the

I have a Debian server running samba 2.2.3. We are running Peachtree 2002 (version 9) and we have issues with the data being on the server. First, during the install, Peachtree says that our server doesn't handle long file names. Obviously it does, but we have to install it by acting like the data is on the local machine and then changing the .ini file to point the data directory to the

Hi, I'm having some trouble using rsync on W2K under Cygwin. We are using it to back up the W2K machine to a Linux machine. We are using the patched version of rsync 2.5.6 that allows it to run faster on NT/2K when calculating the changes. We can backup a directory without a problem, but in this case, we want to backup everything, so the directory we are backing up is \. We do not run rsync

Hi, I recently installed a new samba server to replace an older Novell machine. Now, we are having performance issues. I have installed many samba servers, and have not run into this problem before. Some background info: The server is an Athlon 1800+ w/ 512MB DDR RAM. We are using software raid on 80GB IDE ATA 100 drives with the VIA 82C3XX chipset. When mirroring the drives, we usually get

I'm using rsync and cygwin to do some backups from Windows machines. I have been doing something along these lines: c:\cygwin\bin\rsync -aR -e c:\cygwin\bin\ssh.exe --numeric-ids --delete --delete-after --verbose --ignore-errors --exclude-from=/cygdrive/c/offsitebackup/excludes.txt /cygdrive/c/ root@remotehost This all worked well until I had to do backups of several mapped drives

We have many Samba servers in production. A few of them are having problems with file corruption. I've seen mention of issues with kernel 2.4.18. I know that 2.5.x has some necessary patches. My question is, what kernel is now recommended? Is 2.5 stable enough for production? Or is there an earlier 2.4.x without the issues of 2.4.18 that is more recommended? Trey Nolen

OK, I had emailed yesterday about an issue backing up a W2K machine using rsync under Cygwin. I was having trouble backing up the root directory, and I'm happy to say that the suggestion of using /cygdrive/c seems to have worked! Unfortunately, now I'm getting another error. The error is this: Invalid file index <some number> (count=<some number>) rsync error: protocol

Hi all, I had a few months ago problems with my linux server running slackware 8 and kernel 2.4.18 with samba 2.2.0a. I could not upload files on my server at more than 220 ko/s. This problem is now resolved with my recent upgrade of samba to version 2.2.5. I had to decrease SO_RCVBUF to 4096 in my smb.conf too. Between my previous value that was 8192 and the new one ( 4096 ) my upload increases

I've got a 2.2.3a-12 (Debian Stable) Samba server running on a small network with 98, 2000, and XP machines. The server is a domain controller and the computers are members of the domain. We are using login scripts to map the drives. I have one computer that is having a weird issue. When the user first logs on, you can go to My Computer and see the drive fine. Double-clicking on the drive

Hi, Ruby-GetText-Package-2.0.1 and the families (gettext-2.0.1, gettext_activerecord-2.0.1 and gettext_rails-2.0.1) are now available.

You're going about this in the wrong way. Review the following piece of man-page: logon drive (G) This parameter specifies the local path to which the home directory will be connected (see logon home) and is only used by NT Workstations. Note that this option is only useful if Samba is set up as a logon server. Default:

Hello all, little question. Has somebody already compiled samba on SunOS 5.8 because I cannot statically link libgcc libraries. I already tried "gcc -static-libgcc", added "-lgcc_s" to LIBS variable but always the same result. Below resulted compiled binary .. # ldd bin/ntlm_auth libthread.so.1 => /usr/lib/libthread.so.1 libsendfile.so.1 =>

Yes, I have tried that option with no difference in behavior. It seems it ignores that option when provided. Just for reference, I am building it on RedHat 5. I have never had this issue on any previous version of OpenSSH. I use the default configuration with only the changes specified in the RHEL 5 STIG applied. I appreciate the security advice. The root account was indicated simply as an

I've been introducing a local company to the benefits of Linux and Samba, things have been going really well until I tried to provide some file sharing for 3 people on the Lan. Setup: RH 5.0 on a P5-133 running a small intranet with DHCP, file server, and local / remote mail services Samba 1.9.18 (not sure of patch level) I setup a directory accessible by only 3 users and copied a 2.4Meg

Trey, The Compaq NC7770 PCI-X Gigabit Server Adapter supports PXE: http://www.compaq.com/products/servers/networking/NC7770/ This NIC will be available next month. Also, our strategy is to support PXE on all ProLiant server embedded NICs (10/100/1000) beginning with G2 (generation2) models. Also, most existing DL and all BL servers currently support PXE on their embedded (10/100) NICs. Let
