Hey Metthew,
I think you might have a chance.
Did you try clearing binary data stored by samba? There's a whole bunch
of stuff in tdb files in potentially more than one place (on Debian it's
under /var/lib/samba). Parts are temporary data and safe to remove.
Thereof cached data, connection data
Hello,
We have a Red Hat 5.3 SAMBA 3.0.33-3.7 Server that shares a few directories to
4 other servers.
The other servers are Red Hat 5.3 and one Solaris 10 server.
I configured SAMBA to do the following for each share;
Force User: User1
Force Group: Group1
Create Mask: 02770
Security Mask:
running a
wildly out of date server. There are numerous NFS and Samba fixes in
RHEL 5.9 over 5.3 some of which are critical bugs, performance issues
and others are ones that make your box open to remote root compromises.
Upgrade to RHEL 5.9 and get back if you still have a problem.
JAB

This is 3 times faster than Samba! which needed 82 seconds using drag/drop
