similar to: Vista Read/Write performance

Issue: Vista reads slowly from a samba server. This appears to pop up periodically here and elsewhere. My samba.conf file has: [homes] ... vfs objects = readahead As suggested elsewhere. Writes are approximately 17-18MB/s which is acceptable. Reads are in the 8MB/s range which is appalingly slow. Using linux smbclient and windows XP clients I can read at 25+MB/s. I've enabled vfs

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

Quick question... The docs for vfs readahead mention Windows Vista, but what about modern Windows versions? Windows Server 2016 or Windows Server 2019?

Hi, When using Wine to run Windows ARM64 executables on Linux, there's one major ABI incompatibility between the two; Windows treats the x18 register as the reserved platform register, while it is free to be clobbered anywhere in code on Linux. The Wine code sets up this register before passing control over to the Windows executable code, but whenever the Windows code calls a function

Where does the R build for Vista X64 stand? The last update message is from July last year (see [R] Improved Windows Vista compatibility from Prof Brian Ripley on 2007-07-11). Is it likely to happen in 2008? I suspect that more people will start using it as Vista is adopted more widely. And I'd certainly use it for large genomics data sets. Thanks, Dan Gatti UNC-CH

Did anyone try to run R under Window Vista, especially Windows Vista 64bit? Thanks.

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

Greetings list, I've noticed over the last couple of weeks that, unsurprisingly, nearly every new PC seems to be coming with Vista these days. I expect it'll only be a matter of time for all of us before clients start needing Vista-compatible softphones (if it's not already happened). So, what's the story with Vista compatibility amongst the softphones currently out there?

I have a setup where a Vista machine that is behind a NAT connects to a Linux (debian) machine to access SMB shares on that machine. The connection is made with VPN using L2TP/IPSec. I have configured the Linux machine to act as WINS server and PPP will give the Vista machine a new IP on the same subnet and also tell Vista that the WINS server is the Linux machine. I have added one share

Hi, I've a strange issue with the performance of file transfers between a Samba server and a Vista client. My configuration looks like this: fileserver: Samba 3.3 on FreeBSD 6.2 ----- gbit switch ----- workstation: Vista x64 When transfering files between the two PCs, I get abount 6.5 to 7 MB / sec. On my last Vista installation I got about 40 MB / sec. I've tried the following: -

Windows Workgroup, private network with a Windows Vista PC sharing a folder for full access to a specific user name. The share is browsable and readable from other PCs on the network. I can mount the share on linux (Debian /Ubuntu) with no errors BUT have no permissions on the mount point once mounted (see below). # mkdir data # mount -t smbfs -o username=xxxx,password=xxxx //CHEDDAR/data data

Hi Everyone, recently i installed Vista professional on our xen machine. The installation ran fine however the networking for the machine would not work. we were able to install network drivers for the machine and in tcpdump we could see the arp requestes being sent and recieved from the vista instance but otherwise could get no other networking working on the machine. has anyone else come up

Hello, Does anybody know if Samba is compadable with Vista Yet? If so, is there a way for a group pr user policy to allow samba users to things in windows vista, like install programs w/o admin access. I know Vista has policies that can do this, where it cna basicly grant the user access, witha prompt or w/o a prompt. Can Samba support this too?

Is anyone else seeing Vista (final) will not "connect" to a samba-hosted printer? I'm getting error 0x00000057. I can connect to the port only and install a local driver, though. It's just that the drivers will not load correctly. The drivers do load partly, because I can see driver-specific attributes if I go to "Properties" rather than "Connect". But a test

Hello group, it is reported (R for Windows FAQ) that R runs under Windows Vista. However, does someone here have experience with R under Vista 64 and large (>3 or 4 GB) memory? Greeting - Jan Budczies [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Dear All, I use Vista sync tool for synchronization Vista between samba-3.0.25b-1.el4_6.2 on RHEL AS4. There is some problem on files to copy samba home sharing.

Vista error screen says below messages; These items are in conflict and did not sync ~wrd0000.tmp A file was deleted on this computer and changed on the

I just purchased a new HP laptop running Vista Home Premium on it, turned it on and was able to get it to connect to the Internet through my home wireless network. But when I tried to see other computers on my network I got nadda... One of my computers is running Win2K so perhaps that is understandable, one XP Pro which I don't understand why Vista can't see it, and three of my

Hi All, We're really having problems with Offline Files/Folders and Vista sp1 laptops/desktops. We working with Microsoft just now to debug this as we're registered partners (for testing Samba/LDAP etc.). We now have a massive thread going in the private Vista 4-hr response support forums and we're on to log files debugging Vista side. We've cleared CSC etc. applied the
