>>I noticed that memory is constantly decreasing when I typed free.

I'm no expert but I think samba takes up like 2-3 MB per connection. (I'm
not sure about overheads)

SO.. I think this is normal

Hi,

I have a Linux box with 512MB RAM and running Samba 2.2.7. I noticed that
memory is constantly decreasing when I typed free. If I run ps aux, I see
that more and more samba sessions are opened, some by root and some by
users. Is this normal? Won't Samba close unused sessions before opening new
sessions? Or is this a memory leak somewhere.

Regards,
Norman
