hello, until last week I had 2.2.1a in place, which, except some fox (dos) share which needed 'veto oplocks files', worked ok; upgraded to 2.2.3a with the same smb.conf (details below) and suddenly I started having oplocks problems (not on the dos share, that one is ok) with almost every other share (those hold windows files: programs, *doc, *xls): [2002/02/19 12:31:28, 0]

Hello everybody, I have 2 questions about Samba operation: First, hostnames don't work in my "hosts allow" directive, although smb.conf(5) explicitly says "You can specify the hosts by name or IP number". If I specify a client by its name, that client is not allowed access, even though the server can do reverse DNS on the client's IP. The message I get in the

Can any one help me ? This has been bugging me for ages. I have been using different versions of samba for a while on different versions of Redhat (7.0, 7.2, 7.3). I regularly get erratic freezing (for about a minute) whenever I right click on files. This has happened on different computers on different sites on different networks, so I assume it's quite consistent This is what I get when

Hi all, I use samba 2.2.2 on AIX 4.3.2 (1500 NT4 sp6a / w2k sp2 workstation). since i had updated from 2.0.7 to 2.2.2 the CPU load will very fast go to 100% an d teh memory use of a smbd process will grow up to 100 MB.

Hello there. I'm having a few problems using samba 2.2.3a and sharing a paradox database. On the whole everything works fine but (there's always a but), every now and again. a machine's shares will close causing the database to crash (sometimes only that machine) - the other networked machine recover after a few error messages. I guess the easy answer would be to disable oplocks

In my smb.conf file, I've got the following section: [homes] comment = Home Directories valid users = %S guest ok = no read only = No create mask = 0640 directory mask = 0750 browseable = No veto oplock files = /*.mdb/*.MDB/*.pst/*.PST/ And yet, in the syslog, I'm still getting these...

Hi! Been having the same problem with oplocks for a while and have been trying to figure out what's going wrong. The FAQ says that we may have a networking (hardware?) problem, but according to the Linux box's ifconfig results, we have had no errors and no dropped packets on the internal network. I am able to reproduce the error pretty much at will on our network, and it is not isolated

Hello list! I've seen the threads in this months archives on oplock issues, so I hope I am not hitting a sore spot by bringing it up again. The reason I am beating on this is that I've got a testable, repeatable issue with Win2K terminal server (SP2) running CorelDRAW 10 (patched to current) against a Debian Woody box running Samba 2.2.3a-6 for Debian. Since I can repeatedly test the

I'm using samba 2.1 pre-alpha. When I right click an .exe file on the most shares, explorer freezes, and must be killed to recover. The problem doesn't show up on the home shares, but appears on any other shares I create. I've experienced this problem on many different workstations. Looking at the logs, it seems to be a problem with oplocks; the part of the log that seems to apply is
