Hi, recently we upgraded a central RHEL 5 fileserver to the latest RH EL 5.1 rpms, including samba.
Now some users have the problem, that opening a word or excel file saved on a samba share takes up to 30 seconds. Today I could verify this on the users desktop XP PC. This problem occures only from time to time, so it may be also a problem on the client side or the networkswitch, so I did a test download from an ftp server (ftp-stud.fht-esslingen.de) and I can download files with up to 6MBytes(!) - that's o.k. Copying files from the server (e.g. an 600MB iso) takes about 60 seconds - that's also o.k. But opening smal files on the server takes sometimes that long ... My question is: Could it be, that the update includes some changes in timeouts or locking funtions? Which options may I check? Or are there some cachefiles to be checked? The logfile has no obvious hints for me right now... Thanks for any hints and tips!
