I'm having a very weird samba problem that I have never seen in my whole
life.
The problem seems to be when transfering binary files (dos binary files).
We're running Samba 2.2.1a on Mandrake 8.1. Our clients are Windows 9x,
maybe
some Windows ME, they run a DOS application... sometimes the applications
run
without any problem, and sometimes, they take about 2 or 3 minutes to start
running, this behaviour occurs more often when another computer is running
the same application. Here, the problem is with .exe files, which are dos
binary files. Then, when copying greats amount of data, we have the same
problem, with some .exe files, the it takes about 2 or 3 minutes to start
copying it, and then we have the same problem with some .sys files, so, I
think the problem is with dos binary files.
Another weird thing is that swat says that samba is not running althoug it
is
running, and we had some crashes of the DOS application due to problems
openning some files, but that was common enough to trak it down.
I tryed a lot of things, with diferent configurations, but nothing worked.
In the logs, after about 2 minutes of waiting for the DOS application to
show
up, I see the Error = Connection reset by peer.
Any idea ? if you need me to make any test that can help track down and
solve
this problem I'll be glad to do it, if you have any documentation that can
help me, please, spot it to me.
Thank you very much!
