TCP_NODELAY is still usefull and has a noticeable improvement in responsiveness. SO_RCVBUF=8192 and SO_SNDBUF=8192 are outdated and actually make things worse if running with a 2.6 kernel (they do help if running on a 2.4 kernel). But I too, am sure changing these will not fix your problem (but probably will improve network performance).
How are you killing the open files? With "kill -9"? I kill locked, open files by finding the pid with lsof and then close it with "sudo kill -9 pidnumber". I've never had kill -9 fail me and I imagine you would have to have serious kernel problems if kill -9 failed to kill a pid.3 James -----Original Message---------------------------------------------------- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Ryan Novosielski Sent: Friday, April 18, 2008 3:55 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [Samba] Can't kill smbd process I've seen written here many times that the TCP options are old/no longer needed. Not that I expect that removing them will fix anything. Seems to me you have an awful lot things defined specifically there. I don't know how those relate to the defaults. Or is that testparm -v output? - -- ---- _ _ _ _ ___ _ _ _ |Y#| | | |\/| | \ |\ | | |Ryan Novosielski - Systems Programmer II |$&| |__| | | |__/ | \| _| |[EMAIL PROTECTED] - 973/972.0922 (2-0922) \__/ Univ. of Med. and Dent.|IST/AST - NJMS Medical Science Bldg - C630 -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.6 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFICQqrmb+gadEcsb4RAmjxAKCQudeurwtv7YWf20mPvr/5pTVUqACfbF+z bTXN5/lgADDY5qywZKJEzp0= =IXls -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba
