similar to: Update: Slow browsing/reading from WinXP SP2

Hi, I have a Samba 3.0.9 server on Linux 2.6.9 (Fedora Core 3) that serves WinMe and WinXP SP2 clients wonderfully. I have recently bought a new laptop however that is not playing nicely. Samba for this laptop is responding *very* slowly when browsing or reading files on either the 'samba' or 'jimhome' shares. The new laptop has Win XP SP2 pre-installed. I have its Windows

Hi We're currently experiencing some problems that wasn't a problem in 3.0.4. Since SP2 was installed printers get connected \\<ipaddress>\<printer-name> instead of \\<netbios-name>\<printer-name>. It's more common on SP2 machines but it happens on non-SP2 machines. Although these issues are not consistent. Which some windows applications seems to have a

After apparently flawed testing, we rolled out SP2 for XP this week as samba seemed to be able to handle printing acceptably in recent versions. Once we rolled it out, we started getting reports of many users receiving the error :A policy is in effect on your computer which prevents you from connecting to this print queue. Please contact your system administrator." on a select few

I am with problems to logon WindowsXP SP2 in the samba. I have the fofollowing packages installed in machine.

I follow the steps to logon in the domain the windows

Hi, I have a problem which I couldn't solve myself thus decided to ask here. My setup is rather basic. There are over 20 PCs in the network, most of them running WinXP Home SP2 and WinXP Pro SP2, a few Windows 98 SE and the Linux (Debian) server running samba 3.0.7(-1). They all are in the same subnet. Windows clients and samba are configured to participate in the same workgroup. WINS is

I use samba 3.0.10 on my linux box and I would like to access to a winXP LSD (it's a kind of light windows based on Service Pack 2 (SP2)). Unfortunately, it doesn't work although it worked with a SP1 windows. Here is what I have done : $ smbclient -L ip_winxp .... added interface ip=192.168.0.4 bcast=192.168.0.255 nmask=255.255.255.0 Netbios name list:-

Greetings, This is a interesting problem. One of our researchers uses MATLAB to generate jpg files as part of his vision research. When he copies these files from the file server, it is very slow. I tried 3.0.28a and I see the same problem as we have with 3.0.28. Here are some interesting stats. 1) MATLAB generated files: command: robocopy Y:\23_1 C:\23_1 /e dirs: 2 files: 262 bytes:

I have two computers both of which are running Windows XP SP2. R 1.9.1 runs just fine on one but not the other. Both installations of R came from the same installation package. When I click on the desktop icon an hourglass shows up then disappears. Similarly, if I start RGUI the process shows up in task-manager then abruptly disappears. Interestingly, I can access R in Excel via the D(COM) Server

Hello! I use Windows XP SP2 on my clients. I use the http://unattended.sf.net to automatically install my WinXP machines from a MS-DOS client. This works fine in samba-3.0.5 but since SP2 causes a problem with printers I upgraded to samba-3.0.6rc2. RC2 in turn doesn't work with MS-DOS clients. The symptom is that I can boot from the fileserver but when I try to invoke a program I get

We're running Fedora Core and Samba-3.0.8-0.pre1.3 and we're authenticating our Windows XP users against Active Directory running on Windows 2003. Everything works fine! But now we're trying to secure and harden our WinXP machines and now when any user logged into a secured WinXP they get the errormessage "The account is not authorized to log in from this station". I browsed

Hi All, I have a samba Server 3.0.14 installed on Ubuntu. I also have cups 1.1.23 installed. I have migrated an existing nt4 domain using this howto: http://de.samba.org/samba/docs/man/Samba-Guide/ntmigration.html#id2570211 Samba is my PDC now, and no more windows servers are on the net.

I am currently having problems accesing our samba msdfs shares from Windows XP SP2, Windows 2000 and WinXP SP1 seem unaffected. I have attached the smb.conf and the exports files that define the shares. Running ethereal on the different clients seems to point to the fact that XP SP2 no longer seems to be using the netbios-ssn (139) port. for GET_DFS_REFERRAL instead its using microsoft-ds

Hi all, I'm trying to use DFS. Using smbclient 3.4.7 (distributed with Lucid) and windows servers with both 2008sp2 and 2003sp2. Smbclient successfully lookups up our DCC's. If the first in the DNS reply is a 2003 server it works but if I get a 2008 it doesn't. The main differences is that I get a "not_defined_in_RFC4178 at please_ignore" principal in the SMB Negotiate

Hi there, I have another problem on WinXP SP2 with samba.3.0.20a. Somehow, in a random situation, once user logged onto the workstations, they were prompted with the winlogon.exe Fatal error + blue screen to death then self-reboot. When I checked out the log from windows, it said there's problem on msgina.dll from WinXP SP2. However, another user can successfully logon to the same workstation

Gentlemen, I have noticed (!) an unbelievable drop in performance with Windows xp pro sp2 systems, compared to sp1. The performance I have noticed is 122 seconds to write 65,000 indexed records to a dBase type file under sp2 and the same job in sp1 is 7 seconds!! I can't believe that this is a 'normal' feature of Windows sp2 software when working with Samba. Is it possible that

I'm running Samba 3.0.7 on Mandrakelinux 9.2 as a PDC, with a few shares from the PDC and more on a separate Mandrakelinux 10.0 member file server, also running Samba 3.0.7. The passdb backend is LDAP and clients are all Windows XP Professional SP1. Except for the below, everything works great! We make heavy use of offline files, and with Windows XP SP1, all is well. However, when I
