[Samba] Extremely slow during browsing some directories
David Rankin wrote: I am seeing the exact same problem and I can confirm that a reboot of Win XP helps the problem temporarily. (this is my laptop so it is restarted regularly) It seems something is getting cached or stuck somewhere after XP is up and running for a while that is causing the 30 second delay descending down the directory tree when using the file-open dialog from MS office applications. David, For what it's worth, I've experienced very similar behavior with a Novell server in the back end. Unfortunately, I don't know enough about Novell, and there isn't a Samba server on this particular network that I can use for troubleshooting. I mainly wanted to let you know that it's not just a Samba problem, but perhaps some optimization that Microsoft has used to make sure that their server OS works better. We can always suspect that, can't we? In my situation, browsing works fine with explorer but not in the file open dialog in MS Office apps. Just like you experienced. In regards to Linwei Cheng's original problem, I have to ask, is there a machine account in the /etc/passwd file? For one of my customers who has a Samba box that authenticates against a true Windows Active Directory server, I found that I needed to add local machine accounts to the Linux user database (/etc/passwd) in order to get reasonable performance. The Samba logs were full of messages whining about user MACHINE$ not existing. Now, I might have solved this by adding winbind to the hosts entry in /etc/nsswitch.conf, but I didn't think of that. It works now, so why fix it? --Jonathan Johnson Sutinen Consulting, Inc. www.sutinen.com -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba

It has been posted under: Samba errors with smb QUERY_PATH_INFO,Error: STATUS_OBJECT_NAME_NOT_FOUND 3.0.7 - NT Create AndX Response, Error:, QUERY_PATH_INFO,Error: Extremely slow during browsing some directories Basically Linwei and myself are having 30 second delays descending directory trees within the file-open dialogs from MS applications. (Yes I know, it's an MS thing, but I thought you guys would want to know) The problem does NOT affect windows explorer, only the MS Office application's file-open function. I've posted the ethereal dump of the communications, but, interpreting what it is telling me is beyond this idiot engineer/lawyer. Anyway, what happens is that if you open say: MS Word, and go to open a file -- and click on the directory list box, the process freezes for 18-30 seconds. That generates the AndX response error, QUERY_PATH_INFO error, etc... Yes, it is MS related, BUT, it only happens on trying to access files on a samba share. No doubt, MS has thrown a wrench into the equation, but we need to understand it and find out how to fix in on our side. The problem is I AINT smart enough to do it on my own. Damn, it hurts to admit it, but it's so. My proposal is for you guys to Tell me what you want me to capture/send/whatever and I'll do it I'm too old to try and learn this trick. (You know Play golf -- and your tennis game suffers so pick your sport) That's it. Enough philosophy. I think we have a real problem to work.

Re: [Samba] Extremely slow during browsing some directories
From: Linwei Cheng [EMAIL PROTECTED] Hello, The issues I had before seems all disappeared after I rebooted my machine( Fedora3, kernel 2.6.10-1.770_FC3 ). I don't really understand what benefited the samba on rebooting... The information is, before this reboot, I updated the kernel from 2.6.10-1.760_FC3, and updated samba from 3.0.10 to 3.0.12pre1-1. I really doubt it's the client requirement of GET FULL FS SIZE caused the slowness. Before rebooting, I tried using smbclient on another linux machine to connect the shared folder on samba server, and found that when I use ls to list the directories, the directories can be returned immediately but it get stuck on display the filesystem size information at the bottom until timeout. I think it's the same issue for mapping a disk on windows machines, since the windows will try to grab filesystem size information on every operation as well. After rebooting, the ... block of size . blocks available returned immediately and everything goes smoothly. linwei I am seeing the exact same problem and I can confirm that a reboot of Win XP helps the problem temporarily. (this is my laptop so it is restarted regularly) It seems something is getting cached or stuck somewhere after XP is up and running for a while that is causing the 30 second delay descending down the directory tree when using the file-open dialog from MS office applications. There is nothing on the MS lack of knowledge base and google hasn't been my friend on this issue. Do you have any other ideas that might help get this issue resolved?? -- David C. Rankin, J.D., P.E.
