similar to: vista client doing svn checkout to samba share

Hi, On a vista pc we run Syncrosvn client to check out svn repositories to a samba share. It works but on Vista this takes much longer than on windows xP. Checkout or status check on local disk work normally. (tried the same on a different vista pc, same problem..) To troubleshoot this I created a smaller test SVN repository to make it easier to read network captures. (I made a svn repository

Hi all, I'm using openvpn to connect to a public server that has Samba v3.0.24 installed on Debian etch. The connection is over the internet (from a standard ADSL connection to a remote server on a 2Mbit LL). The problem is copying somewhat 'larger' files from the client to the server. Copying files of up to 2 megabyte goes well but larger files fail (4 MB, 6MB, or more). The error

Perhaps this may be of help... From: http://www.wservernews.com/ Slow Vista File Copy Nightmare Solved! WSN Reader Nick's Vista Horror story in last issue has a follow-up.

Hello, I've spent time trying to find an answer to this one, but no luck. The main problem is that when any user logs into Vista with a domain account, there will be ~35 second delay where the system just sits at the welcome screen with the spinning circle. (after typing their password) This happens on Vista sp1, and earlier. Also on Samba 3.0.24, 3.0.28 and 3.2. I'm pretty sure

Hello I have problems with checkout using SVN. I am following instructions on page http://us2.samba.org/samba/subversion.html. First of all DNS can't resolve name svnanon.samba.org. I checked nslookup and dig on three different systems using three different providers - my office, T-Online and Litnet. DNS servers for all three providers responded that host name not found. I also got IP

Hello! It seems, that Vista SP1 and Server 2008 cannot join an NT4/Samba-domain. Vista once could join before SP1, if one did some modifications to the system (LAN Manager authentication level, Encryption of secure channel). But these workarounds do not seem to work with SP1 anymore. Microsoft points out that joining NT4-domains with Vista SP1 and Server 2008 is not supported/tested

Hi All, I've got some performance issues with Samba and Vista that I just can't seem to figure out. Googling and fiddling has all been in vain up until now, so I'm not sure what I can do other than wait for Samba 4, but maybe someone here can find something I've missed. First off, the server is an Athlon 64 1.8GHz running Gentoo 2006.1, tested with both Samba 3.0.24 and

Hi, I tested a little bit Samba with Windows vista and found serious performance issue regarding reading large files from Samba server. Computers that I tested Samba with were all identical computers equipped with 2,8 GHz Pentium D processors, 1 GB memory and 1 Gbit/s LAN. All computers have only external USB hard drives so that it is easier to change from operating system to another. First I

Hi, This post is to prevent other people that are having trouble with Vista clients from going down a blind alley investigating problems in their samba configurations. After some research I have found (see link below) that there is a general problem for pre-installed OEM editions of Vista Business (and possibly other vista versions) in creating files and folders on network shares. The problem

Hello. I have a problem connecting to a printer via Samba from Vista 64-bit. Samba is configured to use printers from CUPS. When I try to connect to a printer I get a error message saying "Windows cannot connect to the printer. Operation could not be completed (error 0x000006f7)". I have managed to upload both 32 and 64-bit printer drivers from a Windows client. Connection and

I am running samba 3.0.28 on linux servers using ADS security, without any problem. However when I added a vista workstation to the mix, it simply cannot connect to my printers. I can connect to my data/ or disk shares again without any problem from both 64bit vista, and 32 bit vista. When I try to access my printers though I get "Windows cannot connect to the printer, Operation

Hello, I'm trying to get a samba4 server to show up while "network browsing" on a Vista client, but with no success. I've scoured the web and tried many things, but most documentation is for samba3. I can however mount the samba4 share using it's UNC path, but I really want netbios name resolution to work. With samba 3.0.28, as soon as I start smbd and nmbd, I can

Hello. I am setting up a smb server running debian etch for a small office. Due to circumstances outside my control, most of the client machines are running Windows Vista Ultimate. The shares are all set up properly, security is set, and we're good to go. Except that the throughput from any of the Vista machines to the server is at best slow and at worst abysmal. After tweaking the

Hi all, When I connect the samba-3.0.24 server on a Windows Vista machine, I always got empty directory. I mean that I can't see any files in the directory although they really exist there. But from the same Window Vista machine, everything works fine when I connect another samba-3.0.32 server. After searching the Google, I find that the same problem has been reported before, But

Hi everybody! I'm having troubles when trying to add a samba shared printer in win vista home premium (V 6.0). It gives error (0x000006f7). Searching in google I found something similar to my trouble. But It was about samba-3.0.24... http://lists.samba.org/archive/samba-technical/2007-February/051552.html I dont think It's my case. I have installed printer's driver throught cupsaddsmb

Hi list, I have a question concerning a MS Vista Ultimate-Client which I already have joined with a Samba-Domain (3.0.26a), and I do hope that anyone can help me or can give me a hint where to proceed my search. My problem is, that the logon process on this Vista-Client is very long (~1-2 min.). After switching to the detailed logon view, I can see, that Vista displays the (german) messages

Hello, I'm having an "Access denied" issue using roaming profiles for Windows Vista Ultimate RTM (patched to current). The actual login is successful, the full name is set properly and the password is handled correctly, however only a temporary profile is created. The interesting thing is that all else being the same, I do not encounter the same issue for Windows XP roaming

Hi, has anybody seen this error on Vista machines? I'm trying to install a printer on Vista from a Samba hosted printer server, but it just keeps giving me this error. I tried 3.0.22, 3.0.26a, and 3.0.28 but they all behave the same way. Thanks!

I just installed svn-1.3.1 from .dmg on an intel mac. I am getting ... subversion/libsvn_wc/log.c:338: (apr_err=155009) svn: In directory ''sr'' subversion/libsvn_subr/io.c:565: (apr_err=2) svn: Can''t copy ''sr/.svn/tmp/text-base/README.svn-base'' to ''sr/README.tmp'': No such file or directory Any one getting this? TIA for any help.

For those having problems with Vista, and unc paths showing up empty, I can confirm that: [global] host msdfs = no fixes the problem. This is on 3.0.24 with all patches. Note that I am not using Dfs root shares or the like. YMMV Hope this helps someone. Cheers! -- Richard Potter
