It seems that the unbonding of the two network cards fixed the problem. We have yet to establish just why! It was not the hardware because we tested with just one card earlier, however one card was on board and the other NIC was a PCI card. If we ever find out why then I will post. Many thanks for the help.

There are updates to samba, the kernel, and glibc that may, if nothing else does, affect your server. What version of these are installed in your system? Are you NFS mounting any of the data that you're sharing from the Samba server? If so, then NFS file locking must be in a working state in order for Samba to operate normally. If you want to debug the situation, then you should probably increase the "log level" of the samba server (to 3 maybe?) and : tail -f /var/log/samba/<client>.log When the client hangs, the log probably will to. Look at what the server is doing when the client is having the problem. -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]?subject=unsubscribe https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]?subject=unsubscribe https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
