Server is PII-350MHz/256 MB RAM, hardware mirrored high speed SCSI disks. Installed is SuSE 8.2 with Samba 2.2.8a RPM, XFS filesystems and LPRng as printservices. Server acts as PDC and WINS server. Clients are W2K SP2 (a few with SP3). There are +/- 100 clients. We see a server that is 100% busy and we see during a long time a very high CPU load (60- 95%) related to one W2K client. When

Hello I use a new samba server with LDAP support as PDC for some Windows2000 and WindowsXP machines. All is working nice. The useer can login with a user/password in the domain, we have remote profiles, the user can access the samba shares and print etc. But after some time (< 1 day) we get a smbstatus output like the attached file. Users are connected multiple times with the same share

I help an NT admin that has recently added a redhat 8.0 based samba server to his network. the share is one that is a core service for the operation of the business and has about 50 users constantly accessing data from several accounting and tax preparation applications.

This question isn't directly Samba related, but Samba has helped me figure out part of the problem. When I CreateFile on an existing file like so: CreateFile(FileName, GENERIC_READ, FILE_SHARE_READ | FILE_SHARE_DELETE, NULL, OPEN_EXISTING, FILE_ATTRIBUTE_NORMAL, NULL); Samba shows that I have the file opened with this type of lock DENY_NONE 0x20089 RDONLY When the file is locked in

We have a lot of [2006/01/04 18:44:40, 0] smbd/open.c:open_file_ntcreate(1355) Trying to delay for oplocks twice in the logs. Do they harm in general? And only in one single case I got this, don't know if I ever will get it reproduced, so maybe not related and happened by accident: Samba version 3.0.21a PID Username Group Machine

I first asked this question at the end of October, got a response which didn't solve the problem, and have finally got back to the issue now. I'm running 2.2.7a, recently upgraded from 2.2.0 as Domain Logons for Win2K were suspected to be part of my problem. Anyway, the issue relates to AutoCAD (actually a vertical product called Land3) and a command which works with winXX boxes, but

I'm running a samba pdc on my gentoo box in a mixed environment with a couple of Windows XP clients and only a few MacOSX clients. The users told me, the file locking across the platforms does not work properly sometimes. I tried to google my problem, but without luck. I switched all the flags related the lock mechanism of samba on and off, but the problem seems to be solved yet. The only

We are having some problems in our company's test group that did not exist when our Clearcase 2003.06 server existed on a Solaris 8 machine. Now we are running on RHEL 5.2 with Clearcase 7.0.1.3 with Samba 3.0.28 (despite the fact that IBM has only blessed up to 3.0.24) and running into some file locking issues with some scripts our test group runs. I am hoping that someone might have some

Hello, I am running Samba 3.4.7 on Ubuntu 10.04 amd64. Due to legacy support, I am using a smbpasswd file (chmod 600) instead of the newer tdbsam database. It is also worth noting that this server also has LDAP authentication enabled (for SSH access). Clients access Samba from both Windows 7 and Windows XP. The smb.conf file is as follows: [global] workgroup = HOME printcap name =

(Samba 3.0.21c / kernel 2.4.27 / Debian Sarge) Hello, One of my user open a file (located on a SAMBA server) in its application, and when he tries to save it, he gets a "share violation" error. (other people have this problem too). This error happens since I upgraded the SAMBA server from 3.0.14a to 3.0.21c. smbstatus for this file: 32613 DENY_WRITE 0x20089 RDONLY

Hello! Sorry if already discussed, but I can't find. I have two shares pointing to one directory on server. One of this ([share]) shares in read only. If I open file on this share it appears in smbstatus -L output like 28303 1001 DENY_WRITE 0x20089 RDONLY NONE /path TST/????????

Hi all, I'm trying to run a program off a network drive, however it insists on locking the DLL files it loads, so that no other process can access them (even read-only.) This means that only one person can run the program at a time, as opposed to the entire office running it at the same time. It looks like the option "share modes = no" will solve this, but before enabling it for

Hello, We've been seeing a problem with Samba server 3.0.33-0.17 handling lock files for Microsoft Powerpoint 2007. The problem is observed in both Windows XP and Windows Vista.

I recently (a few weeks ago) installed 1.9.18p8 in order to get better performance with an Access Database, which along with adding a TCP_NODELAY in the [global] section has that working like a charm. Thing that's bugging me now is smbstatus. When I run it I see open files listed when I know that they aren't. The following output shows quite a few files open that aren't really. The

Have any of you seen behavior like this before? We are currently having problems with our Samba server coming up telling a lot of our users that Word files "are locked for editing." and will only let users open them Read Only. We are running Samba 2.2.5 from standard RedHat 7.2 RPMS, on i386 RedHat 7.2, Kernel 2.4.9-34smp. Im putting this to the list as a symptom to see if anyone has
