I am having the same problem copying large directories with many files from a Win2003Server samba share to my desktop. Worked fine on 11.04 and 11.10, but not on 12.04 or 12.10. Was happy to see 12.10 release as I wanted this problem fixed, but still there. Couldn't find any other mention of it in the forums. Sorry to say, I'm still stuck using an old laptop with reliable 11.04 to accomplish the server backup. File transfer is identical to Alessandro. Hangs quickly or almost gets to finish. Starts out quickly then just peters out and hangs. No error messages. Have to reboot to get out of the transfer Nautilus thinks it's performing. Cancel has so effect. Running on a 1000/100 ether lan with mostly (16) windows vista machines, 5 XP, 4 win7, 5 OSx, and 4 Ubuntu boxes. I can dual-boot into XP and have no problem, so that removes any faulty hardware. If anyone has an idea... I'm all ears. Thanks, Bud

I used to copy the whole directory regularly on my desktop, and execute a backup with deja dup on that. I did also often backup directly from the samba share. After upgrading my client to 12.10, copying the directory hangs randomly, sometimes after having copied just 1 Gb, others having almost completed the whole transfer. It just hangs, without any crash. I noted the also Deja -dup shows the same behaviour, now it's impossible to complete a backup from the share, it just hangs. It seems to me that a bug in the samba client might be the cause of these issues, since neither nautilus nor Deja-dup have problems with local large directories. my system: Ubuntu 12.10 AMD64 nautilus: 1:3.5.90.really.3.4.2-0ubuntu4 deja-dup: deja-dup 24.0-0ubuntu1 smbclient 2:3.6.6-3ubuntu5 samba-common: 2:3.6.6-3ubuntu5 samba-common-bin: 2:3.6.6-3ubuntu5 ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 12.10 Package: nautilus 1:3.5.90.really.3.4.2-0ubuntu4 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 3.5.0-18.29-generic 3.5.7 Uname: Linux 3.5.0-18-generic x86_64 ApportVersion: 2.6.1-0ubuntu6 Architecture: amd64 Date: Wed Nov 7 12:05:58 2012 GsettingsChanges: b'org.gnome.nautilus.window-state' b'geometry' b"'825x550+853+471'" InstallationDate: Installed on 2012-10-22 (16 days ago) InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 12.10 "Quantal Quetzal" - Release amd64 (20121017.5) MarkForUpload: True SourcePackage: nautilus UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nautilus/+bug/1075923/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
