Indeed that was the problem. This does not fix my browsing problems (though it does change the symptoms a bit), but share access is the far more important issue. It appears to me that this issue is not documented anywhere in the SAMBA book. Perhaps a new section is in order? If someone wants to suggest the right place to put it, I'd be glad to write one. I can see several places where this could go: Chapter 9, under "Browsing of Shares and Directories is Very Slow" Chapter 37 (but where on the list do you try sending 1500-byte pings?) Chapter 38, anywhere? Chapter 37 seems the right choice to me. Maybe adjust paragraph 2 to suggest use of ping -s 1500 -M do? Give me comments, and I'll make a patch.
