Hello,
I've setup a basic Linux Workgroup via SAMBA. Everything is working
fine except for the following:
I just replaced a Windows 2003 Storage Server with CentOS 5.1. When my
users start copying TIF images from the now CentOS 5.1 server, XP
copies the images sporadically. For example: folder1, folder2,
folder3, folder4; each folder has 5 sub-folders in it numbered
sequentially (00000, 00001, 00002, etc.); each sub-folder has 100
images in it. When from an XP box, a user highlights folder1 and
pastes it to their local drive the copying of the sub-folders and the
images is sporadic. For example: first 00003 is copied and in 00003
image 98 is copied and then image 25 and then image 60 and etc.; once
00003 and all of its contents are finished with, the copy process will
jump to 00005 and continue to be sporadic. I've been told by the
CentOS forum that since XP is doing the writing, XP is causing the
problem. I am running the latest Samba available for CentOS 5.1. Also,
I have five bonded NICs in the CentOS server. Does anyone have any
idea what might be going on? I personally don't think it is an XP
problem. I also test Win 2000 and the same issue.
My SAMBA Conifg (Configured Via Webmin):
