Yes please, and attach a debug level 10 log. Are you
testing v3-6-test git tree ? I fixed a bug in that area
post 3.6-pre1 related to guest access.


Yes, smbd version shows '3.6.0pre1-GIT-f87ecd7-test' so I think/hope I 
am testing v3-6-test tree :-)


I have opened bugid 7653 and attached log files of a test case
( https://bugzilla.samba.org/show_bug.cgi?id=7653 )

Thanks a lot for your help.

Oh, you're using security = share. How I *hate*
that setting :-). You do realize security = user
can do everything that security = share can do,
don't you ?


No I did not :-)

Back to Google, I have just discovered the magical map to guest = Bad 
Password setting which allows (me) to make guest connections to shares 
while in security = user mode.



I'm pretty sure SMB2 guest connections
work with security = user (as that's how I test them :-).


Indeed it works.  :-)

Thanks a lot !!!

I can go back to SMB2 performance testing which was the original purpose 
of enabling smb2.

I'd recommend not enabling SMB2 on 3.5.x, it's not ready for
production use. SMB2 will be production ready in 3.6.0.



OK. I have also tried 3.6-pre1 and git version. Same result : Win7 
clients can not connect to a guest ok share.

Should I file a bug on this ?

The reason I am trying SMB2 is that I also have a Windows 2008 Server 
(running on the same type of hardware as the Samba servers) and its 
performance are a lot better when talking to Windows 7 clients.

Typically :
- reading from samba servers reaches 70 MB/s
- reading (same files on same client) from windows server gives over 100 
MB/s


Apart from the use of SMB2 protocol, I can't see why Windows Server 2008 
would be so faster than Samba.



Thanks,

[Samba] Windows 7 with smb2 can not connect as guest ?

2010-08-25 Thread Francois Lepretre

Hello,

on our servers we have shares with no authentication required (no DC, 
security = share, guest ok = yes).


Worked fine for years, but now with Samba 3.5.4, when I enable smb2, 
Windows 7 clients can not connect anymore to these shares.


Looking at the logs, I can see :
[...]
[2010/08/25 10:13:08.058358,  3] auth/auth_sam.c:399(check_sam_security)
  check_sam_security: Couldn't find user 'comp2_2' in passdb.
[2010/08/25 10:13:08.058371,  5] auth/auth.c:268(check_ntlm_password)
  check_ntlm_password: sam authentication for user [comp2_2] FAILED 
with error NT_STATUS_NO_SUCH_USER

[2010/08/25 10:13:08.058386,  2] auth/auth.c:314(check_ntlm_password)
  check_ntlm_password:  Authentication for user [comp2_2] - [comp2_2] 
FAILED with error NT_STATUS_NO_SUCH_USER

[...]

So it seems Samba tries to authenticate the user whereas it's a 'guest 
ok' share.

In the meantime, XP clients have no problem connecting.

Here is the smb.conf :

---

[global]

   workgroup = WIZZ
   server string = Prod1bis File Server %v
   log file = /var/log/samba/log.%m
   max log size = 50
   max protocol = smb2
   log level = 10
   security = share
   encrypt passwords = yes
   dns proxy = no
   guest account = root
   load printers = no
   printing = bsd
   printcap name = /dev/null
   disable spoolss = yes
   getwd cache = yes

[partage]
   comment = Partage
   browseable = yes
   writable = yes
   path = /space/partage
   guest ok = yes

---

Any idea ?


Thanks in advance for your help,

An interesting question. Do you see different performance
between the XP and Win7 clients ? I know you say the same
performance above, but have you looked closely at this ?



Honestly I did not look too closely. The Win7 clients might look a 
little bit faster, like a few extra MB/s during transfer compared to XP 
clients, but this might be due to hardware, more recent on Win7 hosts.


I'll try to produce detailed numbers later...

[Samba] Samba transfer rate slower than ftp

2010-06-23 Thread Francois Lepretre

Hello,

I have a file server under Debian Lenny, with a 41TB file system (XFS, 
24 x 2TB hard drives on RAID 6 on an Areca card)


Reading files with ftp works like a charm and we easily reach the 125 
MB/s limit of the GB ethernet card.


But when reading files (on the same clients) from a samba share, we get 
around 60 MB/s.

Clients are Windows XP 64 and Seven 64 and show the same performances.

Sadly enough, this server has a 'twin brother' (same hardware) that runs 
Windows Server 2008, and reading from a share on it gives a nice 100MB/s.



So why is the samba share so 'slow' compared to ftp or the windows server ?

Here is the smb.conf (samba version is 3.2.5)

-
[global]

   workgroup = WIZZ
   server string = Prod1 File Server %v
   log file = /var/log/samba/log.%m
   max log size = 50
   security = share
   encrypt passwords = yes
   socket options = TCP_NODELAY IPTOS_LOWDELAY SO_RCVBUF=8192 
SO_SNDBUF=8192

   dns proxy = no
   guest account = root
   load printers = no
   printing = bsd
   printcap name = /dev/null
   disable spoolss = yes
   getwd cache = yes
   dead time = 30

[partage]
   comment = Partage
   browseable = yes
   writable = yes
   path = /space/partage
   guest ok = yes



I have also tried without any socket options, or with the following options
  socket options = TCP_NODELAY IPTOS_LOWDELAY IPTOS_THROUGHPUT 
SO_RCVBUF=262142 SO_SNDBUF=262142 SO_SNDLOWAT SO_RCVLOWAT

  min receivefile size=16384
  use sendfile = true
  aio read size = 1
  aio write size = 1

but this did not give any improvement.


Any ideas ?


Thanks

Please remove the socket options and retry :-)


This is the first thing I tried. I did not change anything :-(



If it's still slow, I'll ask for network traces...



What kind of network traces would you need ?
