I'm running Suse 9.2 (kernel 2.6.8-24) with Samba 3.0.20b
When I use security=user, my read/write performance is less than half the peformance with security=share. Why? There are no other changes, but performance is never better than half the speed. This happens with WinXP, Win2K and Win98 clients, so I don't think the client configuration is the problem. Network is gigabit, with Intel Pro/1000 adapters.
My smb.conf file is: [global] workgroup = MYWORKGROUP netbios name = SERVER1 wins support = yes domain master = yes local master = yes preferred master = yes os level = 65 map to guest = Bad User ;security = share restrict anonymous = no server signing = Auto [test] comment = test path = /home/users read only = no guest ok = yes -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba
