Hello list, I've got a problem concerning locking of files with a share on a nfs mounted NAS. samba server is 2.2.8a installed from SuSE-RPMs the NAS is mounted with following line in fstab: <IP-Number>:/vgroup00/data02/data /mnt/nas01 nfs rsize=8192,wsize=8192,soft 0 0 I tried to save a file from word which lead to a aprox. 1 minute hang of my Win2k/SP3. The log of the

We're seeing problems with copying files > 2BG to a samba share. Google says that, as of 2004, there was a 2GB file size limit in that scenario, but I haven't found anything more recent. Is that still the case or am I looking at a different problem? Thanks, Graham

Hi there, I have a quite ugly problem with a Samba server. The server is running Linux 2.4.13 and Samba 2.2.2. The NFS-client is running Linux 2.4.5. The windows homedirs are on \\server\username, the UNIX homedirs are NFS mounted by the server. So, whenever I access \\server\username this actually NFS-mounts /nfs/client/home/username. I now have one client machine that causes the following

When an XP box is reading a file from the Samba server performance is what you would expect with 100 mbs ethernet. When uploading a large file (>1 meg) performance is very slow. 1/20th what I would expect. The Samba server log has these entries: posix_fcntl_lock: WARNING: lock request at offset 12226560, length 61440 returned [2004/12/24 17:28:52, 0] locking/posix.c:posix_fcntl_lock(658)

I am using 3.0.13 and have temporarily run out of disk space on the main samba server, so I have NFS mounted some space from another machine. into a directory that is accessible under samba. When I try to save directly from ms word 2003 sp1 (and same from word 2000) it tells me: on the win98se and win xp pro sp2 clients: "Microsoft Office Word" Word cannot complete the save due to

Well, next problem. Because of samba isn't running on alphaserver 1200 with gentoo linux and kernel 2.6.9-ac12 i've simply exported my smbroot (on alpha, it is my fileserver) and have samba running on an intel pentium4 box, also gentoo, kernel 2.6.0-ac12. Seems to work, eccept some locking problems. smbd[9450]: [2005/02/08 17:29:51, 0] locking/posix.c:posix_fcntl_lock(657) smbd[9450]:

I ran into this problem and was unable to find a solution here or in google. Thought I'd post it to the list so maybe it'll help someone out in the future. Gentoo Linux running 2.4.22 and Samba 2.2.8a. ReExporting an NFS mounted share on a NetAPP fileserver connected to eth1 via samba out eth0.

Hi all, I've got kind of strange setup, wherein all of my data is on a big NFS server (RH linux 8.0 running the 2.4.18 kernel and nfs-utils 1.0.1-2.80) and my Samba 3.0.0 PDC server (RH linux 7.3 w/ 2.4.18 kernel, nfs-utils 0.3.3-6.73) mounts the NFS export with the following options: rw,vers=3,wsize=8192,rsize=8192,hard,intr This mounted partition is then re-exported to the windows users

Good day, Our Windows users aren't able to edit their MS Office files over our Samba shares (Samba 3.0.10, CentOS4 w/ their i386 RPM). It looks like the clients' attempts to lock the files fails. When their client attempts to open such a file, Samba reports: ----------8<----------------------- [2006/10/27 15:55:57, 0] locking/posix.c:posix_fcntl_lock(657) posix_fcntl_lock:

Hi, Here's my problem: Samba-2.2.x (even 2.2.7) compiled right out of the box on HP/UX 11.00 gives some errors in the log file: Nov 23 16:17:32 pandora smbd[6744]: [2002/11/23 16:17:32, 0] locking/posix.c:posix_fcntl_lock(661) Nov 23 16:17:32 pandora smbd[6744]: posix_fcntl_lock: WARNING: lock request at offset 0, length 9223372036854779000 returned Nov 23 16:17:32 pandora smbd[6744]:

Hello All, I recently upgraded one of my HP-UX servers from Samba 2.2.4 to 2.2.7. Since that time, I have noticed that disk activity on the file system where the Samba var directory is kept seems to be higher than I would expect. We have now begun to experience a problem with PC clients running National Instruments' LabView software, installed on a Samba share. When any PC client tries to

Hi, I'm having problems with M$ Office files on an samba mounted fs. Here's the deal. Server A is an NFS server holding the homes. (Irix 6.5.14) Server B is the Samba server (Samba 2.2.2, kernel oplocks = no, Irix 6.5.14) The homes are nfs-mounted on the Samba server (autofs), and all is well until someone tries to open or create an Microsoft Office Document. I suppose it has something

Hello list, I am using Samba with ADS authentication. I am able to map drives and open and close files with no issues with the exception of Microsoft Outlook email files. So from within Outlook, I open one of these email files and I get an access denied error. Even if i put 777 permission on the files in question I get the same error. I am using LDAP as a user and group store if that means

Prior to upgrading from RH7.0 to RH7.3 our Samba filserver worked perfectly. Now we are having locking problems. Initially Iused the same samba binaries built on RH70, I tried rebuilding Samba and reinstalling but it had no effect. If user bon opens an M$-Office file they frequently get a 'file is already in use by bob'. Sure enough smbstatus -L shows the file locked by bob, but bob

Debian Woody with security updates Linux kernel 2.2.25 Samba 3.0.0 libc6 2.2.5 The problem I have is with a windows application that uses samba. This application is crucial for the organization, so if this is not fixed, and soon, we will have to ditch Samba and move to a windows server. I *really* don't want to do this, as Samba has been working so well for years now and billg is rich enough

Hi All, I am having a problem with Samba that seems to be a bug. I say this because I read the archives and they described a problem similar to mine and were told that it was a bug in older version of Samba and the latest version should have it fixed. I am running what is essentially a RH 7.3 on a 1.4GHz Athon with 1GB or RAM. I compiled Samba 2.2.5 in /opt/samba-2.2.5 and am using the following

Sorry if this issue has come up before. I have been using samba on a NetApp filer successfully for some time but I recently upgraded my samba server to Suse 9.0 Professional. I am trying to use the 'classic samba' version (since I don't know any better) and am having problems with file locking on my shares. Here is a transcript of the log.smbd that shows some incompatibility between

Hi, Is there a known issue with FreeBSD 5.2.1 and Samba 3.0.4? I am getting file corruption when copying to a local FAT32 drive (mounted under FBSD) from a Windows XP Pro workstation. There doesn't seem to be any pattern in the corruption. If I mount an UFS drive, everthing is fine. I'd also like to find out if the corruption would also have affected file updates, and not just new file

I was trying to copy swf file (35MB) from a windows machine to my samba share. It told me "There is not enough disk space". However, it lets me copy it in another share. I didn't notice anything different with the share I am having problem with. I noticed the following messages in the log: [2005/08/10 13:56:47, 0] locking/posix.c:posix_fcntl_lock(657) posix_fcntl_lock: WARNING:
