[Samba] vista svn checkout to mapped drive slower than xp
Hi, On a vista pc we run Syncrosvn client to check out svn repositories to a samba share. It works but on Vista this takes much longer than on windows xP. Checkout or status check on local disk work normally. (tried the same on a different vista pc, same problem..) To troubleshoot this I created a smaller test SVN repository to make it easier to read network captures. (I made a svn repository using the putty source code) Our 'normal' repositories range from 40 -> 100Mb in size. (doing captures on those would create huge files..) I have placed the files on http://stoffell.be/samba/ and have read the CIFS document of SNIA but only have found out that: When vista does a checkout or "svn status --verbose" the capture files show a lot more "NT Create AndX Request". 6188 packets, compared to 140 (on XP). Is this related to the problem or should I tweak something in Vista to "workaround" this? Hope to get some feedback on this and if I need to collect more info, please let me know.. The tech info: Samba version 3.0.24 is running on Debian Etch. (fully updated) Vista 32bit is fully updated. (no SP1 yet) XP sp2 Syncro svn client v3.1 (also tested with Tortoisesvn, same issues) Vista and XP connected over 100 Mbit switched network. Thanks in advance for any feedback. cheers, Kristof -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba
[Samba] vista client doing svn checkout to samba share
hi all, I have a vista client (Vista Business) doing a subversion checkout to a samba share (mapped to drive letter) but it's taking a VERY long time. when i checkout to my local hd it takes about 30 seconds, how can i start troubleshooting this? The subversion checkout is about 20 MB (on disk) and everything is connected via standard 100 mbit ethernet network. (vista client is connected via wireless, but same results when connecting via ethernet) Svn client being used is synchrosvn. Same setup but with a windows XP client and the speed is "normal".. Samba version: I tested with debian etch 3.0.24 and debian testing 3.0.28, same results. I already tried disabling the autotuninglevel and Remote Differential Compression but that makes no difference. The tcp_nodelay and so_rcvbuf=8192 and so_sndbuf=8192 are also set in smb.conf. Thanks in advance for any suggestions.. cheers, stoffell -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba

Also reproduced the same thing on 2 different vista's. It really is an issue with copying files from vista to a samba share over a slower link (in this case, openvpn tunnel on broadband connection). The same locations also have XP's, and they can copy just fine.. cheers -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba

Okay, some more troubleshooting.. here's the current stuff I tried.. # 2007.12.10 15.15 * Apply KB935427 after fetching from TheHotfixShare.net * Reboot, test → Result: negative, same error # 2007.12.10 14.50 netsh interface tcp set global autotuninglevel=disabled * Reboot, test, negative. # 2007.12.08 10h00 * Turned of in vista: Remote Differential Compression * Control Panel ⇒ Programs and features ⇒ Remote Differential Compression * Result: negative, same error Any more suggestions? I kinda had my hope set on KB935427, the description looked very much like the problem I'm having.. cheers, stoffell -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba

I must add to this that I have tried the same thing (with vista connect to an external openvpn server and copy +4MB files to a WINDOWS server). My current conclusion: it is a problem with vista <-> samba over slower links (with openvpn tunnel) but not really an openvpn problem (it works when copying to windows, so openvpn is ok, right?). cheers stoffell -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba
[Samba] Windows Vista file copying over openvpn
Hi all, I'm using openvpn to connect to a public server that has Samba v3.0.24 installed on Debian etch. The connection is over the internet (from a standard ADSL connection to a remote server on a 2Mbit LL). The problem is copying somewhat 'larger' files from the client to the server. Copying files of up to 2 megabyte goes well but larger files fail (4 MB, 6MB, or more). The error message I get is "There is a problem accessing C:\myfile.doc - Make sure you are connected to the network and try again". Doing the same thing with windows XP works. My conclusion is that Vista is acting differently but why only with +2MB files... I have already tried the same on an internal samba server (100 Mbit) without OpenVPN, this works in Vista and XP. Any suggestions or hints on how to troubleshoot this? I have already applied MS KB932045 on the vista pc but without result. thanks in advance for any hints, stoffell -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba
