[Samba] changing ip
I require some advice. I've had samba running nicely for a couple of months, however I needed to change the ip addresses for my network. Since changing the ip addresses, whenever I start WinXp and log on it takes about 3-4 mins to log on. Also when I try to browse using windows explorer I sometimes have to wait 3-4mins, then I get the same delay when logging off. If I use dos though and change to the samba drive it works straight away. I'm running Samaba 2.2.7a on RH8. Can anyone point me in the right direction. I've not modified anything else but the ipaddresses (Samba is now on 192.168.0.25, my client is 192.168.0.20) When I finally do manage to be able to browse the drive (share), it seems fine, until I come back maybe 20mins l8r, then I get the delay again. Any help appreciated. Thanks Roland -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba
[Samba] too much work?
Hi, Since I managed to get Samba working I've noticed that when I copy large files, or lots of little ones ( about 4Gbs Worth), I get a message on the Linux box saying; Eth0: too much work at interrupt, intrstatus=0x0040 Now so far nothing has gone wrong, i.e. corrupt files etc Is this something I should be worried about? If not how do I stop the message from appearing? If it is a problem how do I go about fixing it?

[Samba] Joining WinXp to Samba PDC
After trying to get WinXP (Pro) to try and find my domain so I can log on I've finally done it, but now when I try and join my WinXP client to the domain, windows asks me to enter the username and password of an account with permission to join the domain. Now which account would this be?? root doesn't work, neither do my other samba users. Do I have to create another user or something?

[Samba] guest ok = yes
Hi, I’ve got samba up and running, but I have the guest ok = yes option. Now I have the book Using Samba by o’reilly, and if I’m correct this setting should enable be to access the share without using a username/password, however it doesn’t work, then if I enter a valid samba user when it prompts it works fine! I’ve included my smb.conf file, any suggestions would be appreciated. I’m also new to linux, so could it be something to do with the permissions for this folder? [global] netbios name = THOR workgroup = LANGHOLME server string = Samba 2.2.7a local master = yes os level = 99 domain master = yes preferred master = yes encrypt passwords = yes security = user wins support = yes [music] comment = Music Share path = /home/share/music browseable = yes read only = no guest ok = yes Thanks Roland

I did download and compile it, now looking at your config file actually
makes the book make sense.

If you installed RedHat's samba rpm, everything should be set to

If you downloaded and compiled stuff, then I can see this
happening.
