I just set up our new samba server running on a intel box with Suse
Linux 6.2 and Samba 2.05a. The test client which is connected to the
server right now is a Pentium 90 running Win NT 4 with Servicepack 4.
When I copy files from the client to the server it the progress
indicator hits the 100% really fast but then the computer freezes for
1-2 minutes. After this the operation is finished correctly. When I
check on the server the file size is the same as on the client even
before the client unfreezes so he is not doing anything. If I copy the
file back to the client (using the client) it is even faster and it
doesent freeze at all. Here is part of my smb.conf flie with the
setting which have to do with performance.
; performance options
socket options = TCP_NODELAY
oplocks = true
fake oplocks = no
level2 oplocks = True
write raw = yes
read raw = yes
max xmit = 65536 ;I changed these numbers but without improvement
getwd cache = yes
TIA
