Samba 2.2.0, number of SMBD's processes

[MCCALL,DON (HP-USA,ex1)]

Hi Claus,
I am using 2.2.0 released tarball on HP-UX 11.0 as well, and do not
experience this.
I get one smb per client, not per share.  One thing that could cause this
behavior is if the smbd that is servicing the client is 'hung' somehow, so
that when the next attempt is made from the client, it  thinks it has to
renegotiate, etc and starts up a new smbd.
I would suggest turning on log level = 10, debug pid = yes and log file =
/usr/local/samba/var/log.%m

Then reproduce this behavior; possibly you will see the last thing done on
the previous pid for the original smbd that was created for the client, and
the one that gets created when you attach to the next share;  whatever it
was last doing is probably where you're hung up...
Just a thought,
Don

Hi,

I have just compiled and installed Samba vers. 2.2.0 at a HP-UX 11.00
system. I now have the problem that a smbd process is started for each
individual share a user access.Previously in vers. 2.0.7 one process
were started for each user serving all the shares the user access at the
server.

Has anybody have a solution to prevent this or eventually just an
explanation for the behaviour?

Best regards
