I have an IBM XP Pro that communicates (LAN) with several local and remote Unix machines. Communication via Samba is very sluggish and I have no clue as to why (who is at fault). Saving a small (125 kb) Excel file to the local Unix can take several seconds a may result in failure (delayed write failure). Copying files from remote Unix machines to the local one using Windows Explorer often results in failure.
Windows will typically give error messages that are easy to read but give no real information. Samba recorded the following during a failure to copy files from one Unix machine to another (remote to local) using Windows Explorer on the XP:
lib/util_sock.c:(436) read_data: read failure for 9848. Error = Connection reset by peer
Is there any info in this report that explains what could be going on (i.e. what does "c:(436)" and "for 9848" refer to)?
Thank you B
