[Samba] Too many opened files....samba 3.0.28a

Ok. I matched /proc/sys/fs/file-max (i.e 1,000,000) to the max open files parameter in smb.conf. This did the trick. Apparently an application on a CIFS client (running WINXP) opens many, many files. I appreciate your help.

[Samba] Open file error....samba 3.0.28a
When I try to open a specific file from a samba share (LSP), the application (on WINXP) says that it could not open the file. The errors pasted below (from the smb client) show something different from anything I've seen before. Usually these kinds of problems are straight forward. In other words, usually this is a permission issue. In this case, it is not. I am trying to open a file called 55620_SAVER.EXE The samba server is LINUX-FILE1 Does anyone have any insight?

[Samba] Applciation cannot open a file
I'm running 3.0.28a on RHEL 4 U4. The problem I see is tied between an application running on winxp (Altiris Image Browser) and the samba server. The application says it is unable to open specific files. I've tried some things to resolve this. I set force user = root for the share in question. This should have fixed it, but it did not. I set chmod to o+rwx per file. I do not see this problem with accessing files thorough windows explorer, word, excel, etc. Only this application sees this problem I've generated level 10 debug logs to find a clue. I can send them to whoever is interested. The one error that stands out as this application uses 3.0.28a is indicated below, specifically the line Intermediate not found linux-file1 This is unique when compared to another application opening such files.

What is SJMEMDC15? The name of your domain? or DC? Sounds like you are not running Winbind. If not, then running winbindd should reduce contention on access to the secrets.tdb file. SJMEMDC is a DC. I am not using winbind. I want AD (via MSSFU) to establish our UIDs and GIDs so that other servers (not samba related) can have the same UID/GID mappings. Is there a way to get winbind to use another source to map out UIDs/GIDs? I used winbind when I ran samba 2.x, but I could never get it to use another source to determine UIDs/GIDs.

[Samba] cifs mount issue (cannot read files)
In version 3.0.23a (as a file server), I've noticed that CIFS clients (mount samba shares as cifs) get read errors. For example, if the vi a text file on the share, they get a read error. If the more a text file, nothing comes back, but the prompt. In 3.0.10 (pre configured by Centos, not compiled by me) this is not a problem.

RE: [Samba] tdb/tdbutil.c:tdb_chainlock_with_timeout_internal
Thanks for the reply. I will keep this in mind the next time this happens (your strace suggestion). I upgraded from 3.0.21c to 3.0.23a as there were several bug fixes that could be tied to this locking issue with vxfs, though the release notes do not discuss much on file locking. The issue will probably return even with the upgrade, but it does address some other issues I've been having in 3.0.21c. I guess now I am in wait and see mode. I will ask Veritas about something similar to the GPFS locking parameter you mentioned.

Smbd went to D state sometimes to in this case. Mostly we recognized the problem with the tdb files of the printer ( the samba server was acting as a printserver to) I got the following information from the IBM gpfs list: Also, Samba uses fcntl locking extensively on these files and may be maintaining thousands of individual locks. GPFS specifically sets a limit on the number of fcntl ranges allowed on a file at one time (to prevent a runaway or deviant application from consuming large amounts of resources recording such locks). I expect you are exceeding this limit, but you can configure a larger value: mmchconfig maxFcntlRangesPerFile=1. The default is 200 and the acceptable range is currently 10-20 Increasing this (undocumented) value to 1 solves the problem in our case. Maybe there is a similar restriction with vertiasFS. Have you tried to start smbd with an strace -e fcntl -f smbd to trace down the system call? In our case it shows something like fcntl(18, F_SETLKW, {type=F_WRLCK, whence=SEEK_SET, start=936, len=1}) = -1 ENOLCK (No locks available) which indicates a problem with the filesystem.

Hello. I run samba 3.0.21c on RHEL AS 4 EMT_64 U3 and I've experienced a strange problem where smbd will go (and stay) in the D state. While waiting for IO (possibly), these smbd processes do not respond to client requests, thus samba appears to be down. I could not kill these processes via kill -9 , so I rebooted which worked. The only error I could see out of the ordinary would be (from a smb client entry on the server under ./samba/var). tdb/tdbutil.c:tdb_chainlock_with_timeout_internal I am not giving much to go on, but I can give more information if you think this error has some link to my problem. Should I upgrade to the latest stable and does it address this error? I will say that ./samba/private is shared between two identical samba servers running smbd simultaneously. By shared, I mean that the ./private directory is on a shared filesystem (via Veritas clustered filesystem). Each server is running its own independent binaries and ./var/locks. But only one server is running nmbd at time. The other one is always ready to start nmbd upon nmbd failure. If secrets.tdb is shared, would this really only be involved with nmbd/smbd during domain membership . BTW - These samba servers are domain members only.

What are the proper sequence/steps to: (1) Join a Samba server to a WIN2K AD domain where two domains reside with a two way trust. I am running 2.2.8a with winbind on RH Advanced Server. - Should smbd or nmbd be running when I run smbpasswd -j DOMAIN -r PDC -U AdminUserType%password? - Should I add the machine to the domain first via Windows Active Direcotry Users and Computers interface before running the smbpassword command above? (2) Make wbinfo --sequence see all domains as CONNECTED? Right now I am running into several scenarios that I cannot reproduce with any consistency. a. wbinfo --sequence DOMAINA DISCONNECTED DOMAINB CONNECTED DOMAINC DISCONNECTED b. wbinfo --sequence DOMAINA DISCONNECTED DOMAINB DISCONNECTED DOMAINC CONNECTED c. wbinfo --sequence DOMAINA CONNECTED DOMAINB CONNECTED DOMAINC CONNECTED Also, even when I can get wbinfo --sequence to see every domain as CONNECTED, getent group will list groups from all three domains, but some groups are missingbut if I go to Windows Active Directory Users and Computers GUI, these missing groups show up. What am I missing here?
