We are running samba on a number of HP systems running HP/UX 11.00. We moved from samba version 2.0.7. to samba version 2.2.3a. We have about 200-400 smbd's running on one host. Samba version 2.2.3a was running without any problems for about two weeks. But now on two different servers indepent of each other, the file table was full. We found out that ONE smbd used about 5000 !!

Hello everybody, I have 2 questions about Samba operation: First, hostnames don't work in my "hosts allow" directive, although smb.conf(5) explicitly says "You can specify the hosts by name or IP number". If I specify a client by its name, that client is not allowed access, even though the server can do reverse DNS on the client's IP. The message I get in the

Hi, I have referred to the archive and some of you were having the oplock_break problem. Does anyone have any solution for this? Will reboot fix the problem? Please advise. regards, Bridget

When trying to delete or copy over certain files on my Samba server, Windows hangs for some time and then gives "access denied". I can delete these files directly from the server, so it's a Samba or Windows problem. There seems to be nothing special about these files, other than that Samba doesn't like touching them. Upon checking the Samba logs, I find this message or

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

Hi everyone, Just today one of our users informed me that a file she was working on in Microsoft Excel 97 got corrupted.

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
