Hi all I am fairly new to samba and XP. I have a client who we set up a samba server for, they are complaining about documents taking about 30 secs -2-3mins to open but only sometimes (it can be very frequent). I have seen this and captured a piece of the log file I wonder if any one can make any sense of it... I have been looking on the net and trying various things all day but to no avail...

I really appreciate all your responses on this. I might not have fixed it by looking at samba logs but i noticed there was directory in user unix directory with wildcard * as folder name once i removed it, samba showed up all the files and directory. am not sure what would * as folder name caused this behaviour may be samba was trying to interpret * as something else not sure...... or it was

Hi all, Our company uses a buggy piece of appraisal software called ACI Rapid Report. We recently switched from Netware 3.1 to Samba 2.0.4b for file serving, and since then have been unable to create new documents in ACI. Before creating a new document, ACI forms a list of all .aci files in the "data" directory. Locally, this takes a few seconds. On Netware, it took about a minute.

Here's my setup: Caldera Open Linux Lite (kernel 2.0.29) Samba 2.0.4a Windows Domain (Two Windows NT 4.0 Servers -- one PDC, one BDC -- and numerous Windows NT 4.0 Workstations) I can see my Linux box in Network Neighborhood on my Windows NT boxes.

I'm trying to copy a 400 MB file from a Windows 98 host to a FreeBSD 4.5 Samba server providing access to a FAT32 filesystem. I've got "strict allocate = no", but from what I can see with debug set to 10, it is doing a ftruncate which takes about 50 seconds to complete. It appears that Windows gets impatient and generates an error (while Samba is still waiting for the

Hello I've got some strange problems with Samba-3.0.4. When using roaming profiles, keyboard layout is set to english (instead of norwegian) and a lot of programs wont load correctly. Setting log level = 3 revealed a lot of errors after the netlogon-script had executed (and all shares correctly set up). I switched to log level = 10 to get a more detailed view of these errors (show below).

I'm still having some problems with 1.9.18p10 on a DEC Unix 4.0e machine (this machine was upgraded from 4.0d last week). The smbds can take up to 20% of the cpu at various times. Anyways, I've been through all this before with the mailing list and a number of people who have attempted to help me out. Thanks to all of you. But, I have some more info which may or may not be useful.

Hi, I'm trying to automate a server connection to various shares on my network (so as to back them up). I use smbmount which works fine, except on one machine running winXp: i shared a directory on that machine, using a locally created windows user with read-only rights as the only one allowed to access this share. When i tried to mount it (kernel 2.4.20) with smbfs, smbmount hanged, and

I installed samba 3.0015. I have a problem when I try to browse my machine from a windows client. In effect I am not able to "open" my unix-client. I checked nmbd and smbd and they are running. If I try from my unix-clinet: smbclient -L my_user -W my_domain -L my_PDC I can see shares. If I try from my unix client: smbclient -L my_user -W my_domain -L my_unix_client I get session setup

Hello again, I would like to thank Giant Wang and Miquel Bonastre for their responses to my query in "Samba Digest 1734" regarding simultaneous passwd changing for users via Samba. Their comments were helpful, but have not solved the problem. For those who do not have a back log of the Digests, the problem is that with unix password sync=yes, users are not able to change their own

Is anyone else experiencing problems with offline files and folders on Win 2K (SP4)? They are set up OK but when the Win2K machine goes off line and files are modified it won't sync back when back on the network. Error message from the file sync on windows is 'Access denied' (on the server) But I can easily do the overwrite manually so permissions are OK. Below is the log (level 10)

Hello, I have a samba server which has a directory with 11764 files. (The program stores information about jobs and each job has 3 files, nothing I can do about it). When I do a listing of that directory using smbclient, it takes 15+ seconds to complete, same thing on Windows XP. Does anyone have any ideas on how I can speed this up? I did a log on log level 10, it is accessible at

Hello I just moved a win nt file server to linux/samba I've performance problem with the new server thought it's a more powerful machine (and os ;-) ): programs loaded from shares take (much) longer to start A network trace shows up that the throughput needed to achieve the program run (double clic to start then exit) from the linux server is more than 3 times the one needed to run from
