If i remember correctly, the original description of the problem has
been, that the number of smbd proccess is growing until this breaks the
whole system (correct me, if I'm wrong).
In your case the reason might be that clients leave *one* spoolss-pipe
open, after they have opened (and closed) a connection to a printer. The
deadtime parameter is not working, because of this one open connection.
BTW, this is diffrent to connections with admin rights.
To fix this, I add the following lines to smbd/conn.c:
---- start code
for (conn=Connections;conn;conn=next) {
next=conn->next;
/* close dirptrs on connections that are idle */
if ((t-conn->lastused) > DPTR_IDLE_TIMEOUT)
dptr_idlecnum(conn);
+ /* force the closure, even if one spoolss is open */
+ if (conn->num_files_open == 1 && (t-conn->lastused)>=deadtime) {
+ for (plist = get_first_internal_pipe(); plist;
+ plist = get_next_internal_pipe(plist)) {
+ if (plist->name && !strcmp (plist->name,
"spoolss")) {
+ DEBUG(2,("Client holds one spoolss connection. Deadtime reached.
Closing last pipe\n"));
+ pipe_close_conn (conn);
+ break;
+ }
+ }
+ }
+
if (conn->num_files_open > 0 ||
(t-conn->lastused)<deadtime)
allidle = False;
}
---- end code
If the description meets your existing problem, this might help.
(There was an earlier discussion with Gerald Carter about this topic -
this might be his code or merged with mine - I don't remember excactly)
Bye,
