Win2K Errors using samba 2.2.2

[Mitch McNeel]

Matthew,

Not really!!  Just a work around!!

If you have users Netscape profile living on a samba share, I would suggest (0)
zeroing out the number of days to keep history.

What we did:
For users that have their Netscape profiles living on a samba share (homes), we
zeroed out the disk cache, Number of days to keep history and bumped up the
memory cache to 10 megs (256 megs of memory).

This seems to eliminate the Delay write error.

Let me know if this helps....

Mitch

Ps.  We also set the oplock break wait time configuration setting to 10
milliseconds, this helped with word and excel documents taking up to 30 second
to open.

Log error entry:
[2001/12/11 14:42:51, 0, effective(0, 0), real(0, 0)]
smbd/oplock.c:oplock_break(761)
  oplock_break: receive_smb timed out after 30 seconds.


[global]
    oplock break wait time = 10 (default is zero)
