hi again.
u always can configure a smb to PDC, u do not have to use this features.
- if u access with w2k *without* joining the domain, it's functional at
all. - but i'll send u an example look down.
the speed, how a 10mb file is copied through a lan differs extremly with
hardware. - if u want to check your hardware/infrastructure, try following:
on linux/(unix):
ifconfig gives information about lost packets. e.g. 'ifconfig eth0'
if u want to stress the connection use:
'ping -fs 10000' - abort with 'Ctrl+C'
then u see, how many packets are lost.
if u have a stable connection, u should find something like this in your
output:
ifconfig:
RX packets:5857030 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0
TX packets:8054607 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0
=============================^^^^^^^^^=========^^^^^^^^^^^^
ping:
2670 packets transmitted, 2670 received, 0% loss, time 7096ms
========================================^^^^^^^^^^
can u check, if your network is running stable?
i found two little lines, i would ask, if u need them?
>>> remote announce = 192.168.0.255
>>> remote browse sync = 192.168.0.255
as i look into man smb.conf i don't think so (192.168.0 is your main
segment?)
now here's an (minimal) smb.conf 4 w2k, without joining a domain.
[global]
server string = <your server comment>
workgroup = <your workgroup>
guest account = nobody
keep alive = 30
os level = 65
security = users
# u can also use share without user,
#or domain if u have a PDC - butt refer HOWTO...
encrypt passwords = yes # need 4 w2k - create user with smbpasswd...
netbios name = <your servername>
# printing = lprng
printing = cups # depends on your printing system.
printcap name = /etc/printcap
load printers = yes
# socket options = TCP_NODELAY SO_SNDBUF=16348 SO_RCVBUF=16348
map to guest = Bad User
local master = yes
wins support = no
domain logons = no
domain master = no
#maybe this will help with different programm problems...
dos filetime resolution = yes
dos filetimes = yes
[cdrom]
comment = Linux CD-ROM
path = /mnt/cdrom
read only = yes
locking = no
[floppy]
comment = Linux CD-ROM
path = /mnt/floppy
read only = no
locking = no
[printers]
comment = All Printers
browseable = no
printable = yes
public = yes
read only = no
create mode = 0666
path = /tmp
[test]
comment = share fuer testzwecke
writable = yes
path = /netzwerk/windows/test
create mode = 0661
directory mode = 2771
force user = nobody
have a lot of fun
