Re: [Samba] Access from Mac OS X

[su99ort]

But, I have a couple of Mac OS X machines that also need to access  
this
share and are currently unable to do so.  How do I go about getting  
Mac

OS X to recognize this share?



FINDER > GO > CONNECT TO SERVER

smb://servernamehere  (or IP)

it will mount in finder

be careful though there are issues with excel files... they should be  
resolved if your running the latest samba release...

[Samba] Access from Mac OS X

[Brian D. McGrew]

I just put up a brand new Fedora Core 3 machine to run Samba and host
our accounting data files.  Life is good from Windows.  Life is very
good!

But, I have a couple of Mac OS X machines that also need to access this
share and are currently unable to do so.  How do I go about getting Mac
OS X to recognize this share?

Thanks,

-brian

Re: [Samba] Slow samba access from Mac OS X 10.2.6

[James Blackburn]

Just to let you know I've solved the slow mac client problem thanks to 
Ben Low.

The issue was with this line:
socket options = IPTOS_LOWDELAY TCP_NODELAY SO_SNDBUF=4096 
SO_RCVBUF=4096
Removing SO_SNDBUF and SO_RCVBUF fixes the issue.

I think this was in the default configuration - or the default for 
swat.  Perhaps it shouldn't be?

Hope this helps anyone else with complaining mac users.

James

[Samba] Slow samba access from Mac OS X 10.2.6

[James Blackburn]

Hi,

I'm running samba 2.2.3a-12.3 on Debian Linux (i686).  The network is 
100Mbit switched and I can ftp data off the server at 9Mb/sec.   If I 
use either the Finder GUI under Mac OS X or mount manually via 
Terminal, and then try to copy a file I get less than 64k/sec!  I don't 
ever remember having much better speeds than this while using the 
various versions of Mac OS X.  Windows users can access the server with 
no problems.  A 600Meg file will take several days for mac users - all 
mac users seem to have this problem with my server (5 of them) - but 5 
mins. for a windows user.

Interestingly copying files from windows machines works as expected - I 
can copy a 600Mb file to my mac in 5 mins. from a WinXp machine (via 
smb).

I suspect there's probably something wrong with my samba config, but 
not sure what.  I've played with settings - to little effect - and 
searched the net without finding anything of use.

If anyone at all has seen this and/or knows what the problem/solution 
is, I'd be most grateful.

Many thanks,

James
