Hi Kurt,
I set "socket options" to the default by removing it and I set case case sensitive = No. But that did not help or change the log output.
I also changed the NICs in both boxes just to see if that was the problem but that did not help.
:(
I'm wondering, can sombody tell me how long it should take to transfer a 10MB file from win2k (1.5GHz Pentium4, 100 BaseT NIC) to a Linux share (400MHz Pentium2, 100 BaseT Nic) where the two boxes are connected by a 100 BaseT switch?
Also, (if possible) could sombody post thier smb.conf where they are using a Linux box as a simple file server in a Windows environment (where the linux box is NOT a PDC)?
That would really help to see if I'm doing something wrong.
hi again.
u always can configure a smb to PDC, u do not have to use this features. - if u access with w2k *without* joining the domain, it's functional at all. - but i'll send u an example look down.
the speed, how a 10mb file is copied through a lan differs extremly with hardware. - if u want to check your hardware/infrastructure, try following:
on linux/(unix): ifconfig gives information about lost packets. e.g. 'ifconfig eth0' if u want to stress the connection use: 'ping -fs 10000' - abort with 'Ctrl+C' then u see, how many packets are lost.
if u have a stable connection, u should find something like this in your output:
ifconfig:
RX packets:5857030 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0
TX packets:8054607 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0
=============================^^^^^^^^^=========^^^^^^^^^^^^
ping:
2670 packets transmitted, 2670 received, 0% loss, time 7096ms
========================================^^^^^^^^^^
can u check, if your network is running stable?
i found two little lines, i would ask, if u need them?
>>> remote announce = 192.168.0.255
>>> remote browse sync = 192.168.0.255
as i look into man smb.conf i don't think so (192.168.0 is your main segment?)
now here's an (minimal) smb.conf 4 w2k, without joining a domain.
[global] server string = <your server comment> workgroup = <your workgroup> guest account = nobody keep alive = 30 os level = 65 security = users # u can also use share without user, #or domain if u have a PDC - butt refer HOWTO... encrypt passwords = yes # need 4 w2k - create user with smbpasswd... netbios name = <your servername>
# printing = lprng printing = cups # depends on your printing system. printcap name = /etc/printcap load printers = yes # socket options = TCP_NODELAY SO_SNDBUF=16348 SO_RCVBUF=16348 map to guest = Bad User local master = yes wins support = no domain logons = no domain master = no
#maybe this will help with different programm problems... dos filetime resolution = yes dos filetimes = yes
[cdrom] comment = Linux CD-ROM path = /mnt/cdrom read only = yes locking = no
[floppy] comment = Linux CD-ROM path = /mnt/floppy read only = no locking = no
[printers] comment = All Printers browseable = no printable = yes public = yes read only = no create mode = 0666 path = /tmp
[test] comment = share fuer testzwecke writable = yes path = /netzwerk/windows/test create mode = 0661 directory mode = 2771 force user = nobody
have a lot of fun gk
