[Samba] Samba Copy Speed

2004-03-09 Thread Edward Mann
Hello Everyone,

I have been working with two samba servers and i am having problems with
the copy speed that i am getting out of the boxes. This is my setup.

Dell 450MHZ
128 Mem
2 qlogic fiber cards
1.6T software raid 5/LVM
Netgear 10/100 @ 100FD
RedHat 7.3
samba 3.0.2a
another box is a 

Compaq 2500 200MHZ
32 Mem
12G software RAID 0 3 drives
Intel Pro 100 @ 100FD
Debian 3.0
Samba 2.2.8a-0.1 for Debian

I can copy  a 626.9 MB file from Dell box to the Compaq via ftp and get
3-4 MB/s NFS i get 4-5 MB/s Samba i am getting 1.8-2.0 MB/s. I have
tried several options in the config file on the samba server and nothing
seems to want to speed this thing up. Here is the config file that i am
using
[global]
workgroup = edtopia
server string = Samba Server
security = DOMAIN
update encrypted = Yes
obey pam restrictions = Yes
password server = master
username map = /etc/samba/users.map
log level = 5
log file = /var/log/samba/log.%m
max log size = 50
announce version = 5.0
socket options = TCP_NODELAY SO_RCVBUF=8192 SO_SNDBUF=8192
preferred master = No
local master = No
dns proxy = No
idmap uid = 1-4
idmap gid = 1-4
template shell = /bin/bash
winbind separator = +
winbind cache time = 60
inherit permissions = Yes
 
[backup]
comment = Backup Service
path = /backup
read only = No
guest ok = Yes

Mount command on machine is
mount -t smbfs -o username=edmann,rsize=8192,wsize=8192 //trinity/backup
/smb

Any advice on speeding this up. The windows servers that we have are
doing faster transfers. I need to pull between 50-120Gig files off my
samba server and at this speed it is making me look bad.

Thanks for any help.

Jerry, 

thanks for the info, you are right there is a limit of only 32. I am
going to see what problems it would cause if i changed this to something
a little higher.

Thanks again.

[Samba] initialise groups winbind making samba useless

2002-10-31 Thread Edward Mann
I have posted with this error/bug before, so now i am back at it again.
I am having a problem with samba, winbindd and groups. If a users is in
a large number of groups i get the following error when they try to
connect to the samba server

Oct 31 18:00:44 localhost smbd[11086]: [2002/10/31 18:00:44, 0]
smbd/sec_ctx.c:initialise_groups(244) 
Oct 31 18:00:44 localhost smbd[11086]:   Unable to initgroups. Error was
Operation not permitted 
Oct 31 18:03:17 localhost smbd[11091]: [2002/10/31 18:03:17, 0]
smbd/sec_ctx.c:initialise_groups(244)

Oct 31 18:03:23 localhost smbd[11091]: [2002/10/31 18:03:23, 0]
smbd/sec_ctx.c:initialise_groups(244) 
Oct 31 18:03:23 localhost smbd[11091]:   Unable to initgroups. Error was
Operation not permitted 

They cannot connect to any of the shares now.

How do i fix this?

I am using samba-2.2.6
RedHat 7.3
Kernel 2.4.19
libgcc-3.0.1-3

What other info do you need to help fix this problem. Even if someone
would write me back and tell me that i'm totally screwed, that would be
better than nothing.

I will say that this is the first time that i have posted a question to
the net and no one could respond to it. Is this something that only i am
having problems with?

[Samba] Samba group error Can anyone fix it?

2002-10-11 Thread Edward Mann

My post last month.
http://lists.samba.org/pipermail/samba/2002-September/079651.html

Okay i posted this about a month ago, but i did not receive any replies.
Is samba/winbind windows domain group access something that i am only
having problems with? I am getting kinda frustrated with this error, as
more and more people start to use our ftp server, this problem is
starting to become more and more noticeable. If you need more
clarification on the specific problem, i will answer all questions to
the best of my ability. I cannot talk them into putting another server
into production until i get this show stopper fixed.

Thanks for all the help, and great software.

Re: [Samba] Problem Seeing Linux Machine From Windows Machine

2002-09-20 Thread Edward Mann

Change the following to 
[homes]
   comment = Home Directories
   browseable = no 
   writable = yes


so that you can see your home directory


if you want you can go to start -> run

type in

\\mail\skidmore


this should bring up the folder that you want.
