Re: [Samba] NT4 PDC and Samba 3
John, Thanks for your suggestion. Disabling senfile support didn't help. I downgraded to 2.6 and things worked better but not quite right. On my old setup I noticed I had some NIC issues so I replaced it. I'm wondering if I don't still have hardware problems. To test that theory I ran smbclient from the samba box and the latency was horrible.

Everything worked fine in the past except the RAID died so I rebuilt the RAID, copied over the old volume, and ran apt-get update && apt-get upgrade.

I can copy a small directory with a few small text files in it from the PDC to the Samba share. When I try to copy almost everything else from anywhere on the LAN to the Samba share it freezes up and the connection eventually times out.

Yeah, the logs contain no apparent errors. I didn't trace anything. I certainly can do that if it will make the resolution apparent to someone. I was hoping that this would be one of those "oh yeah.. that's known issue xyz where you misconfigured/is being fixed/etc" I'll get some logs.. and when you say "network trace" I'm guessing you're meaning packet captures like tcpdump?
