Hi all, Behavior described in this email is identical whether I try to mount at 192.168.100.2, my desktop and location of my Samba server, or 192.168.100.239, my laptop that is remote from my desktop with Samba server... I want to mount a share defined on my Linux desktop, on my Linux laptop, as a better alternative than sshfs or NFS. I want this mount to happen as version 2.x or 3.x, not as

Sorry for a rather 'unifornative' subject, but i've little o no clue on this. I'm using at work 'pam_mount' with a rather standard configuration to mount via CIFS/SMB user's home directory, from a samba AD member server. This configuration is a bit 'old' (mint sonya, AKA Ubuntu 16.04 as a client, so samba 4.3; debian and samba 4.8 as a server), but work

Hi, The 19th International User and Developer Conference sambaXP (https://sambaxp.org/) will take place from 26th - 28th of May 2020 in G?ttingen, Germany. If you would like to give a presentation, you can submit your paper here: https://sambaxp.org/#c11 Call for paper ends on February 29th.

## QUESTION I am sharing a 120GB folder with lots of files via Samba on a LAN (1Gbps connection). 1) Doing an `ls -lR` on the server (on this folder) takes ~32 seconds, compared with **72 minutes** on the client. Is this difference in performance expected (due to network and protocol overhead)? 2) While the client is executing an `ls -lR`, one smbd process on the server uses about 30-40% of a

hi Michael： We want to implement the ‘persistent handle’ function under Windows 7(SMB 2.1), which has only local ‘durable handle’. For now my plan is just to synchronize the following files between cluster nodes: smbXsrv_open_global.tdb.0 smbXsrv_session_global.tdb.0 smbXsrv_tcon_global.tdb.0 locking.tdb.0 It probably won’t be completed, so I’m writing to ask for your advice. Any help would be

Hi, I am running samba-4.1.4 on my Fedora OS. I have provided the "client max protocol = SMB3" and "server max protocol = SMB3" parameters in smb.conf file I'm able to get only SMB2.1 packets using wireshark after fileshare access from my windows 7 machine. And not SMB3 packets. SMB2->NegotiateProtocol Response 0x0202 0x0210 Samba-4.1.4 is supporting SMB3 also. So

Hi, I am trying to figure out what features in terms of protocols (SMB/CIFS, SMB2, SMB2.1, SMB3) a client uses when being connected to a Samba server (v4.1.17). Is there any tool like smbstatus that shows which protocol version (and possibly which features) a client is using in a connection? (Feature in the sense of 'using encryption' for example). Thanks, Adi

Hello, We have setup ctdb+Samba v 4.11.1 and testing with Windows client and failover works mostly ok. However when using regular Windows file copy, the copy operation is interrupted during ip takeover. Is there any solution to make the failover transparent to Windows file copy ? I understand that SMB2 durable handles should not be used in a clustered setup, and SMB3 persistent handles +

Given this recent announcement https://www.us-cert.gov/ncas/current-activity/2017/01/16/SMB-Security-Best-Practices How does one turn off and verify the SMB protocol setting? I'm a bit confused by looking at the man page for smb.conf. I have the following set which I believe to be the default settings. samba-tool testparm -v | grep "max protocol" client ipc max

hi Michael, Sorry for taking so long to reply, I just get back on vacation. Your advice is very helpful. Our purpose is no IO interrupted with Window 7 cifs client accessing the shared folder when virtual IP taken over by another node. SMB3.0 or newer protocol do meet that demand, but Window 7 cifs client only supports SMB2.1 protocol and previous versions. So we need implement a

Hello, How secure is SMB3 over Internet? I see that Microsoft Azure is doing SMB3 shares over internet so they seem to think it's secure. Does the SAMBA team recommend this type of scenario OR do they recommend instead running it over a SSH tunnel/VPN?

hi Michael Adam: Thanks for you work on samba. Here I am looking for some advice and your help. I have been stuck in continuous availability of samba 4.3.9 for two weeks. Continuous availability in SMB3 is an attractive feature and I am strugling to enable it. smb.conf, ctdb.conf are attached. Cluster file system is cephfs and mount to /CephStorage client: Windows 8 Pro root at node0:~# samba

Hi Everyone, My doubts are for Samba4.1 performance related enhancements (SMB2.1 / SMB3.0). My experimental samba server hardware is running 4.1 version. Want to improve robocopy WRITE throughput from a two samba client machines (win7 or win8 or server2012 x86 servers). Someone please advice me how can I use SMB2.1 or SMB3.0 capabilities to improve WRITE throughput. I tried samba4.1

Hello everyone, I am trying to figure out a way to migrate NIS maps to SAMBA4 (I want to replace NIS with SAMAB4 for a Linux domain. I have researched a fair bit on the web but have not found out any solutions and was hoping I could find some help here. What I have found so far pertains to Windows implementations of Active Directory. Here are my questions. 1) Is it possible with a default

Hello everyone, in my setup I have two samba file server with clustered samba 4.6.7 and glusterfs 3.10. The server are connected via a 10 Gb network (one for clients and an extra network for gluster). When I am copying files from different server ( centos 7 1611, samba 4.4.4, connected with 10Gb) to the file servers with scp, the maximum speed is 70 MB/s (for small files this is decreasing).

Hello All, I'm new to the list and I don't have much of experience with samba. I have a test setup on CentOS 7.8 with samba-4.10.4 and samba-vfs-glusterfs . When my client mounts the samba share via vers=1.0 , the user sees the share properly (uid,gid,mode are just like on gluster). When the share is mounted with vers=2.0 or not specified (anything higher) the files are owned by
