Samba slow to start on bootup
Hi there, Recently, Samba has started to take about 30secs to start on system boot. Output to console says: ... SambaStarting ... The 30 (or more) second break takes place between the Samba and Starting output. What could this be?, it never used to take so long. I have recently upgraded to version samba-2.2.8a_2 on my 5.2 Release server. Is it possible that something else is causing the pause? There aren't any error messages.

Hi, I doubt it is samba that is the cause of your problem. The reason I say this is because you mention the 30 sec break between Samba and Starting and the latest Samba script doesn't echo Starting. You should be able to tell by running the script manually. /usr/local/etc/rc.d/samba.sh stop/start I suggest you look at what loads after Samba. Check the above directory.

I stopped samba using samba.sh stop, then started it again with samba.sh start. You are correct as far as the output goes, only Samba is written to console. But Samba took 30 - 40 seconds to load! It seems Samba is actually causing the pause. Why would this be?

Thanks Gareth Try running smbd in debug mode smbd -F -S -d3 and see if anything stands out. Perhaps a server you have specified in your configuration file is unavailable or not responding. Do the same for nmbd. Cheers, -- Nelis Lamprecht PGP: http://www.8ball.co.za/pgpkey/nelis.asc Unix IS user friendly..

Aah! Thanks for pointing me in the right direction. In debug mode the problem was revealed: Unable to connect to CUPS server localhost - Operation timed out Cheers, Gareth On Mon, 17 May 2004 12:30:56 +0200 Nelis Lamprecht [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: On Mon, 2004-05-17 at 11:56, Gareth Bailey wrote: I stopped samba using samba.sh stop, then started it again with samba.sh start.
