similar to: smbmount read/write block size stuck at 4k

Hi, I am wondering what the right way is to have smbmount negotiate a block size value of more than 4kB with the Samba server. I cannot seem to let smbmount understand the value I want it to use. I assumed first it gets this from smb.conf, and by adding DEBUG() info to the code and printing c->max_xmit, that's what it is using in smbmount.c. I also tried influencing the number using

Thanks Urban. I am now convinced that this problem is being caused by the reshare of the Novell drive. I have ended up copying the data (around 6Gb, 400,000 files) to the Windows 2000 server from the Novell server. I then mounted the Windows 2000 share using smbmount. Copying this has been a dream with no sign of any problems at all. I think we will have to put this down to the MS Gateway

Hi, We have a linux server which has the samba client running in daemon mode (smb shares auto-mounted via fstab). The source smb share is on a W2K box, and both machines are on the same 100MB ethernet LAN. Whenever we try to copy a file from the linux machine's local disk to the SMB share, we would get speed like 5,000-6,000 kbps, but yet if we try to ftp the same file from the linux box to

Hi, I use samba on Linux 2.6 and 2G over size file sharing. It seems smbmount '-o lfs' need to use with large file. but default man page doesn't say this option. I want to edit smbmount.8.xml for lfs and unicode option. I believe using mount.cifs is right way on latest Linux. But one of the implementation smb_clients tools take this lazy option. Is it right way to change of man page

Hello, I tried to compile Samba-2.0.5b with smbmount after setting the configure-option "--with-smbmount".

I have cross-compiled smbmount(smbmnt, smbclient) using samba-3.0.24.tar.gz, then ported them to an ARM Arch machine whose /etc directory is read only. The smbmount command always results in errors """Can't get /etc/mtab~ lock filesmbmnt failed: 1""" Someone says that If we rebuild samba with the smbmount-nomtab.patch and smbmount-mtab-flags.patch, it would work

Hello list, using samba 3.0.9-2.3 on SuSE/Novell Linux 9.2 I have reasonable performance when reading from the samba shares. I have tried this with windows-95, 98, NT, 2000 and XP. I get up to 5 MBytes/s. My problem: when copying files from the windows systems to the samba shares, I find good performance with windows-95, 98 and NT (comparable to reading performance). Using windows-2000 and

Hello, I have found a solution on an other news group : uk.comp.os.linux There is a set of messages with the subject "Ordinary user to mount SAMBA share" You can read the content of that uk.comp.os.linux group through the web, the URL is http://x35.deja.com In one of the message the author wrote "After, further test.

I use samba in a very limited application to mount smb shares using smbmount. I have a simple script I use that mounts several shares to a variety of mount points as a specific user on my system. The script passes username, password, share, mount point, domain information to each call to smbmount. This script worked perfectly under redhat 8.0 but since upgrading to redhat 9 I have had some

RH6.0. I downloaded: samba-2.0.4b-19990527.src.rpm Follwing the instrucions in README.smbmount, I edited samba2.spec to add 1) --with-smbmount to configure 2) the smbmount related files and man pages to the install and files sections. rpm -ba samba2.spec stops with: .....

I have built, installed, and run 2.0.6 successfully without smbmount, but want to do it with this time. I know that it's not part of samba, but am hoping someone can tell me if I'm making a simple mistake. It's possible that it's not even samba related. I'm a novice at this and have not gotten very good at figuring out what's wrong when something doesn't build

Hi, Iam using Red hat linux 6.1 with samba version 2.0.7 .I had compiled and used it,and also used the patch given for smbmount.c by Urban.But Strangely the smbmount version is still version 2.0.5a.Is this the correct version for smbmount since i thought when i upgraded samba from 2.0.5a to 2.0.7 smbmount would also be upgraded.Because iam still facing some problems in using smbmount.If iam

Hello, I'm looking for some (user & technical) feedback on a change I'm considering on how mount and smbmount works together. The current way mounts are done are: mount -t smbfs ... => smbmount ... => smbmnt Possibly without the mount step. smbmount stays as a daemon and reconnects when asked (unless it crashes). Problems: - Some mount options should affect if the mount

Hello-- A quick question, to see if anyone could help me out. I have a home network with two nodes, my laptop and my girlfriend's. I have Debian sarge with kernel 2.6.6 on my laptop while on my girlfriend's machine is the Latin American Spanish version of Windows ME. I am trying to use smbmount to allow me to mount her machine's Windows file shares. I have set up the shares on her

I'm running samba 2.2.5 on a RedHat 8 box. I need to mount a share from a PC that is on a domain that the linux box is not a part of. Normally with another PC you would specify your username as DOMAIN\user, how do I do this with smbmount? I've looked at the documentation, google, etc. I can't find anything. Is this even possible? Here's what I've tried: smbmount //dd192/PM

For long time I used to smbmount my windows-xp share from my SuSE-Linux machine with smbmount from samba 2.2.12. Now I changed to debian-linux with samba 3.0.13. The smbmount-cmd: ' smbmount //winxp/share /unix-dir -o username=user,password=xxx,ro' returns no error. with 'mount' I see the mounted win-share. But when I try a 'ls /unixdir' I get a 'Permission
