Hello, we are using a Samba server (3.0.2a) here at work.  It's running on a dual 
1.4ghz opteron with two 250gig HD.  Everything seems to be running fine except for 
AutoCad (which is the main program we run).  Any time we try to save it can take up to 
10 seconds, or each time we try to print it can take about the same amount of time to 
bring up the print dialog. I am only serving about 6 workstations at a time.

We had the files on a Windows XP machine (not near as good hardware) and everything 
ran smoothly.

I have been searching on google and I have found a few hints, but I have not been able 
to increase my performance.

Here is smb.conf:


[global]

workgroup = WORK
security = USER
netbios name = SERVER
encrypt passwords = Yes
smb passwd file = /etc/samba/private/smbpasswd

[Drawings]

path = /fileservice/drawings
writeable = Yes
browseable = Yes
read only = No
guest ok = No
comment = autocad related files and misc files
valid users = drafter

[Topowork]

path = /fileservice/topowork
writeable = Yes
browseable = Yes
read only = No
guest ok = No
comment = adobe related files
valid users = drafter

hosts allow = 127.0.0.1 10.0.0.0/24
hosts deny = 0.0.0.0/0


Thanks for the help
