I'm testing the AIX binaries for 3.0.24 and have run into a problem. Depending on how I map the share (using: \\[IP, hostname or FQDN]\[sharename]) then the connection to the server is closed after just a few seconds of inactivity. The server runs on AIX5.3 with the latest fixpack. The client is Win XP SP2. I'm currently using 3.0.22 on our production server and don't have this

Hello list, we have a small NAS-Box here in our office, running Linux 2.6.13 and Samba 3 (exactly version string is not avalilable for me at moment). Is there a limit, how many files samba will store in one folder? We recognize a massive CPU-Load of the smbd-process, when accessing a folder which stores round about 60 000 small text-files. Is this a samba-Limit or a bug? The kernel and samba is

Jerry, Jeremy, Whilst fixing bug 2445, I stumbled across NFSv4 ACLs with EA version 2 capability. This is only supported on filesystems that are created JFS2 with Extended Attribute Version 2 support which is part of the NFSv4 ACL support native to JFS2 in AIX 5.3. This is new in AIX 5.3 and I'd like to get to work implementing it as an addition to Linux and IRIX EA support. Are the any

Hi Samba world, Have been struggling with this for the past 10 days, we are running Samba 3.0.22 on VCS zone, we have end users saving files onto Samba mapped drive, and complained that it 5mins to save 300 files, now it takes 30 mins. There is recently a change in the topology. Before Enduser ----------- samba mapped -------------- server (local attached storage)

From reading the wiki for a filesystem quota, I took my shot at 1) building my binaries using the mods in AIXPluginsSupport 2) changing dovecot.conf and 3) putting the plugins in the library But I'm getting this error message when I invoke dovecot: Plugin imap_quota not found from directory /usr/local/lib/dovecot Error: imap dump-capability process returned 89 It would seem that a) I have

Hi, AIX's implementation of posix_fallocate is a little bit, let me say, peculiar. Attached is a patch to "fix" (=work around) this. Without you'll see this in the logs: Jul 28 01:17:41 trevi mail:err|error dovecot: IMAP(beckerr): posix_fallocate() failed: File exists Jul 28 01:17:41 trevi mail:err|error dovecot: IMAP(beckerr): file_set_size() failed with mbox file

G''Day Folks, I''ve finally typed up my classic DTrace demo, which I use to introduce people to DTrace (I delivered this at SOSUG#1), http://www.brendangregg.com/DTrace/dtracevstruss.html Here I create a fault and show the difficulty in analysing it using previous tools. Then I compare the impact of analysing the problem using both DTrace and truss. DTrace wins (a lot!).

I am running a very simple multithreaded program (TestThread.C) which calls gethostbyname_r in several threads. My analysis of this program with both truss and DTrace suggest that is has a small leak. However, if I alter the program to have many more threads and run for a lot longer it never runs out of memory and does not carry on growing. Can anybody explain what I am missing in my analysis or

This morning, I noticed in my security email, that my entire /usr/bin directory had setuid diff's set on them. I think I've been hacked. So I installed chkrootkit from ports and ran it. It showed not infected for everything, except NETSTAT. NETSTAT showed infected... I ran chkrootkit for another machine (at my office), and it showed not infected for everything. Both machines are

Hi, I have replaced an older AIX system with a new one running AIX 5.3, all the latest patches. It is acting as a PDC (I think irrelevant). The old server was running AIX 4.3.2 with Samba 3.0.14a (upgraded from 2.0.7) , and was working 100% fine. I had the old server running 3.0.14a for 6 weeks prior to the upgrade as part of my migration plan. There are Windows 98 boxes that connect to

Hi, i am experiencing a problem with ssh 3.0.2.p1 running on Solaris 2.8. Everything works fine with local users (i.e. with local passwd and shadow entries). With LDAP authenticated users, i obtain: treno at tao[!] -> ssh -v Segmentation Fault (core dumped) The probem is the same with 2.x releases. Thank you, Roberto Bertucci

Hi all, I am installing a zone onto two different V445s running S10U4 and the zones are taking hours to install (about 1000 packages), that is, the problem is identical on both systems. A bit of trussing and dtracing has shown that the pkginstalls being run by the zoneadm install are making door_call calls to nscd that are taking very long, so far observed to be 5 to 40 seconds, but always in

Hi: I''m running Indiana (OpenSolaris developer preview) under parallels in OS X 10.5.1. I can consistently get Solaris to hang. Doing a dtrace -n pid\$target::malloc:entry''{@=count()}'' -c ls will consistently hang Solaris. Basically doing anything with PID provider with the -c option seems to hangs Solaris. Only way to recover is to stop and start Parallels desktop.

OK, so this may be a little off-topic, but here goes: The reason I switched to OpenSolaris was primarily to take advantage of ZFS''s features when storing my digital imaging collection. I switched from a pretty stock Linux setup, but it left me at one disadvantage. I had been using inotify under Linux to trigger a series of Ruby scripts that would do all the basic ingestion/setup for

How do I find out why df -k is taking soo long to respond only sometimes? -- Asif Iqbal PGP Key: 0xE62693C5 KeyServer: pgp.mit.edu A: Because it messes up the order in which people normally read text. Q: Why is top-posting such a bad thing?

We have been having a problem with sshd on our shell server. This has been happening since March 4, 2003 or before IIRC. Initially I thought the next OS upgrade, to 4.8 would fix this. I am accustomed to haveing little things go away in a month or two. I think we jumped to 4.7-STABLE on Feb 28, 2003. Some exploit fix wasn't being MFSd to RELENG_4_7 fast enough for my nerves (cvsd?). It
