Hi Louis,

Yes of course that would help duh! apologies the OS is fedora 25 Samba
version samba-4.5.10-0.fc25.x86_64

smb.conf

server string = Samba Server MY-NETWORKS
hosts allow = 127.
log file = /var/log/samba/log-MY-NETWORKS.%m
log level = 0
max log size = 50

security = ads
encrypt passwords = yes
passdb backend = tdbsam
load printers = no
cups options = raw
printcap name = /dev/null
allow trusted domains = yes
ntlm auth = yes

WORKGROUP=MY-NETWORKS
REALM=my-networks.com
password server = x.x.x.x y.y.y.y
pid directory = /var/run/samba/my-networks.com
lock directory = /var/cache/samba/my-networks.com
private dir = /var/cache/samba/my-networks.com
winbindd socket directory = /var/cache/samba/my-networks.com
winbindd privileged socket directory = /var/cache/samba/
my-networks.com/winbindd_privileged
smb passwd file = /var/cache/samba/my-networks.com
state directory = /var/cache/samba/my-networks.com
cache directory = /var/cache/samba/my-networks.com
ntp signd socket directory = /var/cache/samba/my-networks.com
winbind offline logon = true

socket options = TCP_NODELAY IPTOS_LOWDELAY
getwd cache winbind
max domain connections = 250
winbind max clients = 5000

My question can I cache the logins or do something to speed things up ?

TIA
