You just asking for problems. You are dealing with a different network protocol and different network clients. No, i'm only working with TCP/IP now. And yes, the clients work with W98 or W2K. I meant CIFS/SMB vs. Netware. Not IPX vs TCP/IP. That's right. Spool32.exe or spoolss.exe die very often. I can see a read or a write socket error in the log list nearly at the same time. Ahh...did you initialize the printer drivers installed on the Samba server? If you are not supporting driver download to windows clients, you might want to set disable spoolss = yes Hmm, do you really think that this can solve some of my problems? The update from 2.2.3a to 2.2.5 wasn't very effective. Samba is different from other projects such as apache. Because we are constantly learning new things about how windows servers operate, it is hightly recommended to use the latest stable release. But is there a possibility to set Samba in a kind of Compatibility Mode, so that i can be sure the source of the problems isn't Samba ? Samba constantly runs in compatibility mode as compared to a Windows server. At least that is the intent.

Re: [Samba] Is Samba made for trash?!? Newp.
By then, we discovered that if we disabled all oplocks, we got no more corruption. I posted here weeks ago problems regarding Excel 97 file corruption. I finally disabled oplocks then. But day passing, I had new problems with Word 97 :-/ (new posts here, mainly not answered but a tip on how to get clients at same time that servers... -NET command usage...): Many times a day, clients here when oppening a MS Word 97 document have it in READ ONLY mode, but seems no reason fort that!! I recently put oplocks *back* ON *but* with veto-ing excel files... I hope this change could solve de pb.. Waiting for changes, I read again docs about oplocks (Samba HOWTO Collection -R-O-X-, O'Reilly and SAM'S books too) Again and again but as Jeremy says thereafter, seems a problem *in* Word 97 ... Maybe I'll have to patch it (it's original version, just patched with Euro Font Fix, nothing more, maybe the source of the problems? -Idem with Excel) That Samba file server has been incredibly stable, serving terabytes of data to almost 100 clients. We've seen no file corruption since that day. You'll find many admins who agree with me - Samba rocks! Same opinion here. Samba works like a charm. We got 2.2.3a Debian woody stable release (damm when will they upgrade at debian?? ;-)). -- Jean-Paul ARGUDO -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba

[Samba] Is Samba made for trash ?!?
Hi Sambafriends ! I have done a migration from Novell to a Samba-PDC in a medium enterprise with nearly 50 workstations eight weeks ago. When i look at the /var/log/warn listing i still see some errors, and i like to ask you, if this messages are normal ? smbd[7809]: [2003/02/11 18:26:45, 0] smbd/password.c:domain_client_validate(1517) smbd[7809]: domain_client_validate: could not fetch trust account password for domain OFFICE smbd[4902]: [2003/02/11 18:32:32, 0] lib/util_sock.c:read_data(436) smbd[4902]: read_data: read failure for 4.

The workstation now hang more often than with the Novell-Server. I fear, that the read_date and the write_socket_data errors cause this hangs. And after i have disabled the oplocks and the socket options Samba is very slow. The same hardware has worked under Novell very well and more stable in inaction with the workstations. I'm frustrated - please help. Thanx. Michael -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba
