Hello I installed Samba on a FreeBSD system I cannot make the system to work properly. Everything is fine when I transfer small files but when I copy files of 100 MB or larger the kernel crashes. I don't know what to to. My machine is a 1,7 GHz Athlon, all components are brand name (Motherboard is ASUS, I have Kingston DDR memory, the HDD are Western Digital (I have 2, not using RAID, the 2nd is for backup), the NIC is Allied Telesyn (chipset Realteck 8139), the switch is Allied Telesyn. I am using ATA 100 cables. The OS version is FreeBSD 4.7. I've tried all the variants. I've tried the package included on CD distribution (Samba2.2.6_pre2) and the one from FreeBSD site (3.0-1alpha19). I also tried compiling source codes from version 2.2.7 downloaded from www.samba.org. I've tried on every version all the options for samba server strict lock = yes, level2 oplocks = no strict sync=yes sync always = yes locking = no rawwrite=no rawread=no (I've tried the both yes&no, combination of them). When I copy files with rawread=no the kernel do not crashes but is too slow and I saw it crashes when I do other thingks like opening a big winword file. The kernel also crashes when I scan a mapped drive through network using Norton Antivirus from a client. I also tried not only with generic kernel but I've compiled for SMB support: options NETSMB options NETSMBCRYPTO options LIBMCHAIN options LIBICONV options SMBFS and many other options enabling or disabling some parameters, like CPU parameters, memory maping. I am not so good with programming & debugging and a want to make Samba work smothly on FreeBSD. What should I do? Is the Samba suitable for FreeBSD? Is realy working? I've been used Linux with samba for an year and I had no problems. Please do not give me advices like to use again Linux, I want FreeBSD? ------------------------------------- I've downgraded the Server OS to FreeBSD 4.4 & Samba 2.0.10 and everything is fine but the kernel from FreeBSD 4.4 does not detect VIA VT8233A integrated peripheral controller suporting UltraDMA 133/100. In other words when I copy files in FreeBSD (not samba) I only achive a 9 MB/s speed instead of 38 MB/s speed achieved on FreeBSD 4.7. If I can compile (I can't since kernel from version 4.4 does not suport that kind of integrated IDE controller using ata 100). So I want the Stability from 4.4 and speed from 4.7, is any solution?
