similar to: Windows XP slow with Samba

Folks, Haven't been able to find any information on either issue. 1) We have Windows clients (primarily NT4sp6a and WinXP sp1) connecting to Samba servers, and it works fine but the connections are slow. They take 5-10 seconds whereas connections to native Windows servers are nearly instant. 2) The WinXP machines seem to disconnect the SMB session to the Samba servers ASAP rather than

Hi, We have Samba 2.2.8 on RedHat 9.0 (from rpm). We connect about 5 Win XP Professional PC's (with Service Pack 1) to the server. Roaming profiles are set up. After about 30 minutes client connections are lost to the server and the users cannot reconnect to the server, even if samba is restarted. A reboot of the server is required. This occurs, it seems at this stage, when large

Hi, I test samba 4 for AD authentification and file-server usage. My file-server use posix ACL (XFS filesystem) for manage acces between user. So I must use some trick ("steve posix-tify script") for adding posixAccount to activedirectory tree. But my questions are : who use samba 4 file-server part ? How other sys admin permit user to store data on a server (and not on

Hi, I have a samba server which functioned correctly. Only, since 2 weeks, the users have complained about slowness networks and the server is to 100% CPU on the initial process smbd.

Hi all, I have a question about memory usage and IPC$ share. I'am auditing the swap usage of my server because I already have a problem with a full swap.

Hi, I don't think that rid backend will work, because when we start samba (samab 2.2.8a) lower uid was 1000, but when we moved to samba 4, power uid was put to 10000. That's mean new user and group use uidNUmber or groupNUmber > 10000. But we have old account and group with uid or gid < 10000 regards Stéphane Purnelle "samba" <samba-bounces at
