[Samba] Performance is limited by design on larger servers?
I have a fairly large server with 16 CPU, 8 Gb ram and just four HDD's. While the disks are pretty untouched most of the time, three samba processes are working for dear life. Sometimes going up to 100. These processes are running LDAP, SMB and Kerberos where LDAP seem to be the one mostly utilized. If i could spread the load onto more processes this server would be able to handle a lot more requests. Is there any way to do this? //danileh -- With best regards, Daniel Hedblom Sysadmin Department Barn och Skolförvaltningen Municipality of Sollefteå Phone: +46 (0) 620-68 22 02 Mobile: + 46 (0) 70 383 72 44 -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/options/samba
[Samba] Any way to start over with a fresh DNS partition?

How do i remove the DNS partitions and start over? -- With best regards, Daniel Hedblom -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/options/samba
[Samba] Samba4 smb.conf parse shares diffently depending on where a section is located.
I guess this works as intended but i wanted to put it here anyhow for future reference for others. If a share definition is located above [Global] it gets totally different attributes. We had enormous problems with rights on one share and no matter what we did to acl, xattr and Windows permissions it just would not work correctly. A couple of things added to a definition above [Global] is: create mask = 0744 directory mask = 0755 map archive = Yes map readonly = yes store dos attributes = No vfs objects = Putting the share below the [Global] section solved everything anyhow.

Re: [Samba] Problem setting rights on Samba share.
The problem here was the [share] definition was located above the [global] section. Testparm showed the additional things that got added that made the share rights fail. 2013/3/10 Daniel Hedblom daniel.hedb...@solleftea.se I have some difficulties setting rights from Windows on a Samba share. Tried changing posix rights to no avail. The Admin rights has disappeared and i need to reset them at the share level. How do i do that when it is not working from Windows. I do not understand samba-tool ntacl and how it is supposed to be used. So, how do one set rights in samba 4 when you lost your ability to manage them from a Windows computer?

[Samba] Problem joining Samba 4 to an older Samba 4 alpha 17
Hi there, Im trying to join a samba 4.0.1 server to an older samba 4 alpha 17 server. Whatever i do the join is interrupted but i dont know what goes wrong. Dns is double checked and correct as is most other stuff. How can i get a better view of what is happening than this? Can it be the source domain that contains erroneous objects? My goal is to move the old server to a new one, maybe there are a better way of doing this? Suggestions?

Honestly, upgrading in place is the best way to do this. Backup the old DC, upgrade in place, and start the 4.0.1 release. The role transfer stuff isn't as reliable as we would like, whereas in-place is. Thanks for answering so fast. Im trying to move to a new hardware at the same time, and the server is not easily upgraded as its an Resara Server with their own packages of Samba4. Not so sure i would be successfull if i upgrade. I would very much prefer if i could move the machine and user accounts somehow without doing nasty stuff to the original server. If i upgrade in place will a subsequent join of another DC be easier then?

[Samba] See logged in users or workstations?
Hello, Run a large network on Samba4 and so far, working great. What i do miss is a way to see how many computers or users are logged into the servers. So, is there any way to get a list or number of logged on users/workstations on Samba4 running on Linux? Any help is greatly appreciated! //danielh -- With best regards, Daniel Hedblom Sysadmin -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/options/samba
[Samba] Logging in to a Samba 3.5.6 domain from Windows 7 takes more than 2 minutes.
Hi, are about to roll out Samba to 2600 users and 1500+ machines and have a slight problem. Server: Samba 3.4.9 running on ubuntu 10.04 Client: Windows 7, 32 and 64 bit on various hardware The problem is that logging in takes time and much of it seems to be the Windows 7 client just waiting. While 2 minutes may sound pretty ok this is without any roaming profiles or GPO applied. The logs shows nothing interesting ,on Windows i see error 6005 and 6006 but thats just a standard logging when things take a long time, can be anything. On a wireshark trace nothing in perticulat comes up before the long timeouts. Anyone else who has seen this problem after applying the various remedies on this mailing list and from other places on the internet? Thankful for any input. //danielh -- With best regards, Daniel Hedblom Sysadmin -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/options/samba
