I tried to transfer a large file (~300MB) to a windows machine from my gentoo laptop:
# mount -t cifs //winbox/movies /mnt/samba -o iocharset=utf8,umask=0000 # exit $ cp largefile.avi /mnt/samba The transfer starts and eats 100% of my CPU. However, after transfered ~40MB of data, my linux system freezed: mouse point doesn't move, keyboad doesn't response, even Ctrl-Alt-Del has no effects. The only thing I can do is hard-reset my laptop. If I share this file via samba server and use windows explorer on the winbox to retrieve it, it works. It seems something wrong with the samba client? -- Qiangning Hong http://www.hn.org/hongqn (RSS: http://feeds.feedburner.com/hongqn) Registered Linux User #396996 Get Firefox! <http://www.spreadfirefox.com/?q=affiliates&id=67907&t=1> Thunderbird! <http://www.spreadfirefox.com/?q=affiliates&id=67907&t=183> -- [email protected] mailing list
