[Samba] problems with samba 3 and termnal server
hello folks dont know if this is a faq: a customer currently uses a Suse 9.2 pro with the last version of Samba to share a folder containing data for an Enterprise Management program (Windows based). everything works fine with local clients (many 98s and 1 XP machine). we have some (15) clients connecting to the ERP program via a Terminal Server (Windows2K server). these clients often stuck in some requests for 5 to 15 minutes (randomly) and then unlock and continue working. note that: - the same folder on a Win2000 machine works fine (ie. no stucks) - this means it is a samba problem - local clients work find - this means it is a terminal-server-related problem i thought it was something related to oplocks and i have disabled them (level 1 AND level 2) but the problem is still here. now I ***suppose*** this is something like: - samba receives many connections from the same IP (the terminal server) and has problems de-mux-ing the requests... any ideas??? mny tnx in adv greetings loris __ Accesso Internet Gratis per utenti Excite!

One smbd per user on W2K TS with this registry key: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/818528/ You need the hotfix 818528 (included in Update Rollup 1 for SP4) for the key to become effective.

I'm getting something similar - Suse 9.3 client running rdesktop with a session from TS 2003 which gets its dbase files served by a Debian Samba 3 server. Oddly, it seemed to happen after running nicely for a while, possibly the week before last. I can't see any admission of changes on MS site.

They only changed to single-connection to screw Samba over in a big account anyway (the honest and sad truth :-). Bad people. It isn't entirely clear to me whether the registry setting is the same for TS2003 as it was for TS2000.
