Hi, i'm using Samba 3.0.20b-2 0 and i have problems deleting bigger files (>10mb) from a windows xp machine on a share on my Linux server. Before i upgraded Samba this wasn't a problem and it worked.
When trying to delete such a file, now the explorer is going inactive. Earlier, it would just popup a question to confirm deletion. If i wait long enough and the files aren't to big, i still get the delete confirmation messages so the problem seems to be that the read of the file/permissions goes slow? I use this method to move backups from the Linux server to burn them on CD. Anyway, to find out what the problem is, i tried mounting the partition on XP where i store the backups. This went ok BUT the copy was extremely slow. It would only allow a couple of KB's per second ! The reverse way (XP to Linux share) went ok but here the same problem, if i wanted to delete the file after the copy to Linux, i just got the hourglass and nothing happened. This was not on the backup folder but on my home folder so it can't be a permissions problem. What could be wrong? This is my samba config [global] panic action = /usr/share/samba/panic-action %d workgroup = MYGROUP netbios name = HOMESERVER server string = %L socket options = SO_KEEPALIVE TCP_NODELAY IPTOS_LOWDELAY SO_SNDBUF=8192 SO_RCVBUF=8192 os level = 64 preferred master = yes local master = yes domain master = yes hide unreadable = yes time server = yes syslog = 0 dns proxy = no security = user encrypt passwords = true domain logons = yes log file = /var/log/samba/log.%m log level = 3 passdb:5 auth:10 winbind:2 max log size = 150 hosts allow = 127.0.0.1 192.168.1.1 192.168.1.10 192.168.1.0/255.255.255.0 interfaces = br0 bind interfaces only = yes add user script = /root/scripts/create-machine-account.sh %u logon path = \\%L\profiles\%U\%m logon script = logon.bat logon drive = I: logon home = \\%L\%U\.win_profile\%m ldap admin dn = cn=admin,dc=domain,dc=be ldap suffix = dc=domain,dc=be ldap machine suffix = ou=People ldap group suffix = ou=Group ldap user suffix = ou=People ldap server = localhost ldap passwd sync = yes ldap timeout = 10 add user script = /usr/local/sbin/create-machine-account.sh %u passdb backend = ldapsam:ldap://localhost:389 [homes] comment = Home Directories browseable = no writeable = yes create mask = 0700 directory mask = 0700 [backup] comment = Backups path = /usr/local/backup browsable = yes writable = yes create mask = 0775 directory mask = 775 [netlogon] path = /home/netlogon read only = yes write list = benedict [profiles] path = /home/samba browsable = no writable = yes create mask = 0600 directory mask = 0700 Thanks for any info, Benedict -- Benedict Verheyen Debian User http://www.heimdallit.be Public Key 0x712CBB8D -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
