Can you get wireshark traces or debug level 10 logs of what is going on when the app freezes ? Does it eventually display an error message or is the client computer just frozen and needs to be rebooted ? > - - when ran from a remote location (connected via openvpn), the app takes > a very long time to open, and when searching for records it takes more > than 2-3 minutes to display the results of the query (even though other > tests have shown the connectivity is ok and file transfer is as fast as > the line allows) - this happens even if this workstation is the only one > accesing the fileserver > > this behavior appeared only after switching from novell to samba Again, traces of what is going on here would be needed. If the client machine is Win7, SMB2 support (due in Samba 3.6.0) might help as Microsoft have done lots of work on the SMB2 redirector for high latency links.
