similar to: OS X slow with Samba server

Hi list, I am encountering a problem in connecting a Windows 2003 to a Samba 3.0.21b server. The Samba server is configured to have a security = share option, so that no password is needed. I can connect to the server by typing "net use z: \\192.168.51.1\data", and it is successful. However, if I try to do "dir z:", no file found! Same behaviour are found in Windows

For quite awhile I've noticed that smbd uses 10-15% of my CPU (Pentium 4) when nothing visible is going on. I have a couple of laptops on my home network, and some experiments showing that powering on the Vista laptop (other is OSX) is sufficient to raise useage from 0 to 10-15%. The screen is locked, although 2 user accounts are logged in. Wireshark seems to show a lot of chatter,

Hi, Running samba 3.4.0-3ubuntu5.1 on an Ubuntu 9.10 installation. I've previously been running ubuntu intrepid ibex (samba 3.2.3). Since the upgrade I've had issues with a device not finding any wokrgroups/domains when doing an nmb lookup. The device is a wireless music player that can make an SMB connection and has worked fine until the upgrade. When sniffing the network, I get a log

Hi all, we have got 4 Samba Servers. All BDCs for "MYDOMAIN", except by SERVER3 that is a PDC. All of them have 3 physical Network interfaces, from which 2 are used by samba. Each of them has a several ip aliases, except by SERVER1 which has only primary ip numbers on its interfaces. When I try to join a new Windows client (XP SP3) to the domain. It asks our wins server for

Debian Lenny Samba 3.2.3 LOOX N560 with Windows Mobile 5 Hello, ?my PDA LOOX N560 could connect via WLAN to SAMBA under Etch. Meanwhile I upgraded to Debian Lenny and now may PDA cannot connect anymore to the server. Error 1223 or 1222. Connecting to XP-Clients via WLAN is okay. Connecting to Samba Wireshark tells me: malformed packet: No. ? ? Time ? ? ? ?Source ? ? ? ? ? ? ?

I trying to figure out why copying from a Samba drive to Windows XP is slower than an FTP transfer beween the same two machines. To copy the 110 MB file from Samba takes 400 seconds, and to transfer the same file by FTP takes 41 seconds. From using ethereal, and comparing a fast smb copy to a slow smb copy, I can see that the slow copy has a _lot_ more tcp traffic for a SMB single read

Hello, I have just migrated an old OS/2 file server to a Linux box with Samba 3.0.23a. Now the OS/2 clients crash from time to time. I found a way to reproduce/force the crash using PMMail and did some experiments. The popuplog.os2 on the clients (Warp4 and eComStation) always names a sys3175 in pmshell.exe / doscall1.dll. Using Ethereal and comparing the network traffic between a) a client

I have a samba version 3.024 server joined to a ADS as a "Workstation or server" acting as a file/print server. It is a Debian 4.0 amd64 up to date with stable. ftp works just fine so not network, must be samba config. vary slow file transfer when copying file from one computer but copy from two or more at the same time speed is 10 times faster. You will be copying a 600MG file with one

Hi All, I have been using Samba 4.15 on CentOS 6.3 64 bit for last 3 months with no issues but suddenly there i am facing below issues. 1. Windows 7 Pro/Ultimate cannot join the domain, but can telnet all the port. 2. Shared resources on Server 2003 which is added to domain is available some time and some time not. For isolating the issue I have temporary removed the server from Domain the

hello I would like to join a Netapp fileserver to a Samba domain that uses an external Openldap server for authentication. Here's what I do and where it goes wrong (I've hidden the real ip addresses). I've also created a machine account for the Netapp server on the PDC.: What is the name of the Windows NT 4 domain?

I'm trying to use rsync to copy files from a Microsoft Windows machine (XP, with cygwin) to a macintosh (10.5.8, PPC). After a lot of playing with options, manual page reading, etc, I have the following command, executed on the windows machine: rsync -A -X -a --delete --rsync-path="/opt/local/bin/rsync --fake-super --log-file=/tmp/rlog.txt" /cygdrive/c/DRIVERS "rsync at

I set up a domU as a backup server, but it has very, very poor network performance with external computers. I ran some tests with iperf and found some very weird results. Using iperf, I get these approximate numbers (the left column is the iperf client and the right column is the iperf server): domU --> domU 1.77 Gbits/sec (using 127.0.0.1) domU --> domU 1.85 Gbits/sec (using domU

Here's what you asked for - along with some tcpdump data that shows what I'm thinking the problem is...If anyone knows what this is - I'd LOVE to hear it - I've seen lots of posts about this type of error from others, and none of those folks have posted their problem being fixed (they probably gave up on it like I did for awhile...)

Hi all, an iBook running Mac OS X 10.2 recently joined my little network, so i did configure it for using a Windows shared printer (HP Officejet G55), naturally through SMB protocol. I used CUPS for setting it up. Now, the problem: if i try to print from the iBook, the printer takes about 10 minutes for throwing out each page and the document seems to be continuously spooled up to windows.

I'm running Samba on a Linux 7.2 recently upgraded to 8.0 system. I have a problem that occurred in 7.2 and also occurs in 8.0. My clients are Windows 98. If a client reboots then regularly it is not possible to access files on the Linux server without restarting smb on the server. On the Windows 98 clients, in network neighbourhood I get \\Robert is not accessible. No permission to access

Hey, I have slow access when I first open shares. If I reboot my XP box and then go to access a share, it takes a good 10 seconds for files to come up, even after I've typed in my username and password. Once accessed it runs fine and is fast. But, if I don't access it for 30 minutes, when I access it again it sits for like 10 good seconds before it does anything. This is very annoying.

Hello, Last week I have detected with Zabbix that a member of my Samba domain had been downloading at a rate of around 8 Mbps for two days and a half. When asking the person to whom belonged the machine, he didn't know he was downloading anything but he said he had observed his machine had slowed down since then. I took a tcpdump of the traffic before terminating his session on Windows
