A local company has been having issues with samba for some time (it kills an e250, and has seriously stressed an e5000) and I've been telling the admin (half seriously) that he should just toss it on a PC with FreeBSD. Well they finally got tired of hearing FreeBSD this and FreeBSD that and asked me to bring a box in if I was so confident... tomorrow morning at 9am. So, I'm building a new box tonight and was wondering if anybody has any tried and true tuning parameters for samba on -stable. They currently have ~700 users attached. The load per user is pretty low but just rebooting and handling the reconnects has killed small boxes.
As a side note, the data being served will be attached to the samba server via NFS. Thanks. -- Chad David [EMAIL PROTECTED] www.FreeBSD.org [EMAIL PROTECTED] ACNS Inc.
