Hello. I've just spent some time figuring out why on my RedHat ES server samba allowed me to connect, browse directories, but as soon as .exe was in the dir it would freeze. I couldn't open text files or anything else.
It turns out that the Redhat kernel does not play well with 'sendfile' functionality. so I added: use sendfile = no and I'm back in the game. Anyone could help me understand what sendfile does in samba and what is the tradeoff when disabling it ? thanks.
