Good day time! We've noticed the following issue with Samba 3.0.1 on Linux. When SMB client asks for the first time on FID for a locking or read request on an opened file, it causes an ACK to be sent from client side. Windows server also requests ACK BUT much more rarely. Sending ACK causes additional overhead when working in heavy locking and unlocking environment. Windows server

I think I've found out why MacOS 10.5.x (Leopard) clients are unable to connect to Samba shares when authenticating with Kerberos. Basically, the Leopard Macs insert a few extra bytes (Padding and reqFlags, according to wireshark) into the security blob within the Session Setup AndX Request packet, bytes whose start tag is 0xa1, in a spot where Samba's parser expects 0xa2. The critical

When trying to access a disk share (on a VMware Win2K machine) that shows up fine with smbclient -L (version 2.2.8a on Gentoo), I get a "tree connect failed: NT_STATUS_ACCESS_DENIED" error. Examining the TCP stream with Ethereal (see excerpts below) revealed that the initial login went fine, with password sent and accepted. However, a second authentication exchange, apparently for

Here is a second, somewhat related question to my last one. When looking over the network trace I have ran into something I cannot explain. It may be quite proper, in which case I am misreading the trace. But I would appreciate it if someone would explain this to me. In packet 109 of the trace (during a login with no profile on the server), I see a "NT Create AndX request"

Hello, I replaced an NT4 server by a Samba 3.0.14a ldap server following the instructions in 'Samba by example'. Everything works fine except for some files on a W2003 SP2 server: - when the W2003 server uses the Linux PDC, from a WinXP client, some files are not writable, and ACLs can be listed but not changed. - when the NT4 server is up, the same files on the W2003 server can be

I'm trying to use a Samba (3.0.37) share on my ASUS RT-ac66R router as a destination for scans from my Kodak Office Hero 6.1 all-in-one printer. I'm currently getting an invalid User ID or Password error message. I have been unable to increase the Samba log level at all even after editing the log level in smb.conf. Before an old router running DDWRT (including Samba) failed, scanning to

Hi, We're doing some of performance tests with Linux Samba v3. We're comparing WinXP/Win2k clients vs OS2 clients accessing a samba server. For one test, we're coping 10.000 small files. Let's say, we run the command copy \\sambaserver\10000files\*.* c:\data\10000files With an OS2 client it takes 23 seconds to complete. With an Windows client it takes 460 seconds to complete.

Samba 3.0.28a-0.fc8 & Windows XP. When logging on to machine 'A' one of my users gets an "Access Denied" message for a particular cookie file -- 'statse'. When logging on to another machine ('B'), there is no problem. I have tried, when logged in as administrator (mapped to root on the server), to read the cookie file on both machines. Machine 'A'

After migrating a particular W2K file service to Samba 3.0.21c on SuSE 9.3 Pro (a DMS with winbindd against a W2K3 ADS), the W2K clients are suffering performance issues (in a switched LAN). Looking at the traffic with Ethereal (latest SVN), it looks like the client writes the data in *1 byte* pieces likes this (c=client, s=server): c->s NT Create AndX Request c<-s NT Create AndX

Recently I had the chance to look at smb service response times over OpenVPN using Wireshark/TShark. Here are 2 samples.

Hi, I'm trying to replace a windows fileserver server with a Fedora Core 2 samba server in our Windows 2000 ADS domain. A performance problem occurs when accessing certain samba shares from Windows Explorer on either an Windows XP or a W2K client machine. It can take up to a minute for explorer to list files in a share folder containing only a few files! It eventually does, but but reports

Hi, Iam trying to setup Samba version 3.2.3 on Redhat (RHEL5) server to use Active Directory for authentication. I followed the instructions from article in following website: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-au/magazine/dd228986.aspx Setup Winbind + Samba + Kerberos and it seems to work fine. I can see the users in Active Directory through winbind as well as authenticate users using NTLM

After upgrading XP to SP2, I can no longer connect to server aliases. The client reports an error 53, "The network path was not found", when doing "net use * \\prof\profile.

Hello, my company recently changed the stucture of some shares (Win2000). Since then, we are not able to access these shares from Linux/Solaris anymore. I tried smbmount and smbclient and can access the top-level directory of the share and see the directory structure, but I can't see any data inside these directories. A few days ago, someone told me that msdfs is used for the new structure
