Hello Guru's - I'm a new to Samba and I am having some NT 4 client problems that appear to be Samba related.
We're running Samba 2.2.3a on a HPUX 11i server for sharing out a database application files (Rational Clearcase).
My smb.conf file:
# Global parameters
[global]
client code page = 437
workgroup = DEV
netbios name = CMSSF
server string = %h Samba %v Server
security = DOMAIN
encrypt passwords = Yes
password server = *
log file = /var/opt/samba/log.%m
max log size = 50
time server = Yes
load printers = No
show add printer wizard = No
preferred master = False
local master = No
domain master = False
dns proxy = No
wins server = xxx.xx.xx.xx
kernel oplocks = No
read only = No
create mask = 0775
directory mask = 0775
hide dot files = No
oplocks = No
[rdms]
comment = RDMS Clearcase dbs
path = /rd1/rdms
write list = @dms
guest ok = Yes
browseable = No
(Have multiple shares configured the same way)
On a few NT clients some users are having problems downloading with certain files that generate application errors while others don't get the problem. Having the user try the same operations on one of these non-problematic boxes, everything to works fine so I can rule out user/file permission problems.
These errors are sporadic and do not always occur on the same file. I've noticed that at the same time as these Clearcase errors, the host's NT event log record a RDR warning - "The redirector has timed out a request to ".
Looking at the Samba log files I get the following
Various hosts log files having this problem has similar entries like this:
[2002/10/04 10:13:43, 0] lib/util_sock.c:(436)
read_data: read failure for 8015. Error = Connection reset by peer
log.smbd has various entries like below:
[2002/10/07 13:41:29, 5] tdb/tdbutil.c:(475)
tdb((NULL)): tdb_brlock failed (fd=10) at offset 4 rw_type=2 lck_type=6
Is this SAMBA related issue or something else.. network?.. client??
Is there a config parameter that I can set to resolve these problems?
Any help would be greatly appreciated as this is all new to me.
Thanks
Norman Dignard
