Hi Sambafriends !

I have done a migration from Novell to a Samba-PDC in a medium enterprise 
with nearly 50 workstations eight weeks ago. After a couple of problems the 
most things run well. But i have a few questions left and it would be nice, 
if an experienced user can help me:

When i look at the /var/log/warn listing i still see some errors, and i 
like to ask you, if this messages are "normal" ?

smbd[3777]:   write_socket_data: write failure. Error = Broken pipe

The workstations run with Win98, Win 2000 and Win XP Pro. I have diabled 
all oplocks (because i had a lot of oplock-failures). The workstation now 
hang more often than with the Novell Server. I fear, that the read_date and 
the write_socket_data errors cause this hangs.

It would be very nice, if you could help me. I'm sure that a lot of other 
samba-users have the same problems.

Thanx.

Michael
