I am thankful for all support received so far and I feel I'm getting closer to a solution. To get back to basics and a more transparent setup I have made a clean Ubuntu 16.04 installation and followed this guide https://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Setting_up_Samba_as_a_Standalone_Server Windows clients users are logged in with username Admin (local account, administrator). The samba share is

Hi Folks, Small office setup, 3 computers, 3 staff. Recently updated system and rebooted. Today, I am seeing crazy amounts of the same listing for clients (294 lines!) and open files...

After having migrated my machines and user to Samba 4.3.11 on Ubuntu 16.04.1 (no domain upgrade, new provision, all accounts new defined) and old data copied over to the new machines, I have now a broader testbed and notice issues I didn't see prior to that. Having roaming profiles (defined in the user object in LDB)... Seemingly at random smbd keeps locks on NTUSER.DAT and ntuser.ini for a

Hi, We have 5 Samba domain controllers, and 4 file servers. All are 4.2.10-Debian. Our file servers have been working fine until recently (on the 26th), when suddenly access to the \\users.store.example.com\user share (hostname p-cats) became extremely slow. Access to other shares on other machines is fine, and users is 128G total (smaller than other shares). The machine isn't under

Hi Volker and the list Yesterday the problem appeared again I could launch a strace command over a samba PID to see what was going on and this is the result [PRO] [root at pf3il0024 ~]# strace -frp 57686 Process 57686 attached - interrupt to quit 0.000000 fcntl(14, F_SETLKW, {type=F_RDLCK, whence=SEEK_SET, start=35824, len=1} It seems the process was trying to get a read-lock but no one

I am running samba 4.5.1 on Ubuntu 16.04. The samba server is running as an AD DC and stores the user profiles, the clients are all windows 10 professional. One user reported being locked out of the profile pretty regularly. After investigating the case I saw that a lot of files in the profile are still locked even after logging out and shutting down the system. After restarting the samba server,

Hi list, I'm using samba-4.7.6-r0 and attempting to establish a public samba share where any anonymous user can write to the share. I have an issue where the 'guest' (uid 405) account is unable to write to a directory owned by that uid. If the gid or world writable bits are set, I can write to my share, but not as the guest uid. I need assistance troubleshooting why I cannot write as

Rowland, The 'guest' user exists in /etc/passwd, and there are no users defined in tdb backend. 1. /etc/passwd: guest:x:405:100:guest:/dev/null:/sbin/nologin 2. pdbedit -L -v: ^$ EOL 3. smb.conf updated as suggested - smbclient -U% //share/public -c 'put test1.txt foobar' NT_STATUS_ACCESS_DENIED opening remote file \foobar Modifying the settings as suggested made no impact,

OK, have repeated the test: - samba logs: http://www.mediafire.com/file/jy4qcyvqg6z39zu/logs.tar.gz/file - tcpdump log: http://www.mediafire.com/file/qzex3kxf2vzd87n/tcpdump_all.tar.gz/file The tcpdump log covers the whole period of testing time, from starting to stopping smb and nmb services. Previous logs deleted from mediafire. Now waiting for any advice from you, or let's

I can ssh into the box with my user id and create files in

Did you note the very second you saw the offending error message? That time would help a lot, I can't see the error packet. But all that said, I'm not the person who needs to look at this, I just hoped I could help get you the information they would need. The only other suggestion, other than the build on master in the hope this has already been fixed, is if you do find you can build

I noticed one of my smbd processes for one particular client (IUSR_JUNIPER) is taking 200MB in memory, far different from all the other smbd processes. Should I be concerned about a memory leak here? I don't think samba would be caching any files, so I can't see why it'd use this much memory. That windows client is a win2k IIS5 server, with well over 60 sites that are hosted off a
