Greetings, I have a newly loaded WinXP/SP2 laptop connecting to a FC6 samba share. The first 2-3 accesses to the share work fine but then it goes south.
The access times are extremely long. I did a tcpdump on the FC6 box and see constant samba traffic between the laptop and the server when there is no actively on the laptop. I have a different laptop running WinXP which doesn't behave in the same manner. After a 2-3 minutes, the network traffic stops and I can resume using the laptop. During this period, the laptop appears to be hung. Connection between the two is via wifi. I don't see any other problems while using the network. Both boxes are updated to the latest and greatest. Samba is samba-3.0.24-4.fc6, samba-client-3.0.24-4.fc6, samba-common-3.0.24-4.fc6 Extensive googling has found nothing helpfully. Below is my smb.conf [global] oplocks = no workgroup = MONKEY server string = Data Server security = user hosts allow = 192.168.1. 127. load printers = yes cups options = raw log file = /var/log/samba/%m.log max log size = 100 dns proxy = no [printers] comment = All Printers path = /usr/spool/samba browseable = no guest ok = no writable = no printable = yes [data] comment = Data share path = /data1/smbshare valid users = smbuser public = no writable = yes printable = no [video] comment = Video share path = /data2/video valid users = smbuser public = no writable = yes printable = no Thanks for your help. -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba
