Re: Samba destroys qeth driver

2004-10-13 Thread Christian Borntraeger
We've been fighting an extremely annoying issue where heavy Samba usage causes a loss of network connectivity through an OSA card. Sometimes Are you running on a z990 under VM? Then you should check if #CP SET QIOA OFF fixes your problem. If not, you should first check if you have installed

This appears to be interesting. It is a new OS. It will have a Linux personality capability. It is open sourced. http://www.research.ibm.com/K42/ The last time I heard personality in this context was with Workplace OS. That supposedly died because of conflicting endianisms. -- Phil Payne

When you export a samba share, since the desktops use wins, we've been seeing that desktops cannot resolve the dns name if it isn't in the wins server but if you go with the ip address (ie \\calhoun doesn't work but \\123.456.789.001 does) - do you have to register this with a primary wins server
