We don't have such a limit in Samba. We'd need a network trace and a debug level 10 of smbd to see what's going wrong. Along with your smb.conf file before and after your change. For info how to create network traces see http://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Capture_Packets With best regards, Volker Lendecke -- SerNet GmbH, Bahnhofsallee 1b, 37081 Göttingen phone: +49-551-370000-0, fax: +49-551-370000-9 AG Göttingen, HRB 2816, GF: Dr. Johannes Loxen -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/options/samba
