When Windows systems initially mount my servers' shares, they usually timeout initially. These shares work perfectly after bootup once I tell Windows to give up. If the same Windows client had just mounted the share a few minuites prior and reboots again to try to mount, it usually does not timeout. Fortunately this means that the timeout doesn't happen often enough to be extremely annoying since we all know how much Windows loves to reboot. This occurs with Samba version 2.0x on Slackware Linux 7.1, FreeBSD 4.2 and 4.3beta. I have not tried any other platforms. On both systems I compiled the code with both the usual -O (or -O2) -pipe and with -s -O3 -mpentiumpro -march=pentiumpro -malign-functions=4 -fexpensive-optimizations -malign-double -fschedule-insns2 -mwide-multiply -funroll-loops -pipe (not that I thought the code execution speed caused the problem, but just in case) Attached is my smb.conf file. It doesn't have anything particularly odd in it, AFAIK. The system hardware is: P2-400 in Intel manufactured BX mobo 364MB RAM Various Maxtor IDE UDMA2 hard drives and a Seagate Elite UW-SCSI drive as the only device on an Adaptec 2940UW I figured that this might be due to hard disk spin downs a la ACPI, but I have ruled this out by disabling all powersaving features and listening to the hard drives for the tell-tale spinup sound when mounting the drives. All shares have this symptom (both on the SCSI drive and the IDE drives) and it occurs with Windows 98(se) and Windows 2000. All systems can access the drives perfectly after the initial bootup. I have set up several Samba servers in the past and each and every one has this symptom. Any help would be appreciated. _________________________________________________________________ Get your FREE download of MSN Explorer at http://explorer.msn.com ------=_NextPart_000_5500_2856_3f22 Content-Type: text/plain; name="smb.conf"; format=flowed Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="smb.conf" #Samba configuration file #Do not edit unless you know what you are doing [global] log level = 0 socket options = SO_SNDBUF=8192 SO_RCVBUF=8192 TCP_NODELAY IPTOS_LOWDELAY read raw = yes write raw = yes status = no workgroup = ALTERNET netbios name = ICEWIND interfaces = xl1 192.168.128.1/24 127.0.0.1/24 os level = 65 preferred master = yes lm announce = no encrypt passwords = Yes hosts allow = 192.168.128. hosts deny = ALL min passwd length = 8 max log size = 1024 read size = 32768 [MP3] comment = MP3s path = /shares/mp3 read only = yes write list = sivar menox foran fake oplocks = yes oplocks = yes follow symlinks = no [Data] comment = Programs and files that take lots of space path = /shares/data read only = no write list = sivar menox foran # valid users = sivar, foran, menox follow symlinks = no oplocks = yes [Data2] comment = Other programs and files path = /shares/data2 read only = no write list = sivar menox foran follow symlinks = no oplocks = yes [Movies] comment = Movies path = /shares/movies read only = no follow symlinks = no oplocks = yes [CD-ROM] available = no comment = CD-ROM share with Utility Disk path = /cdrom writable = no follow symlinks = no fake oplocks = yes oplocks = yes [homes] comment = %U's home directory path = /home/%U guest ok = No read only = no create mode = 644 writable = yes follow symlinks = no oplocks = yes ------=_NextPart_000_5500_2856_3f22-- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
