Hi team!

Samba 4.1.11 on Debian Wheezy here, configured as a DC. I recently started
noticing long startup times for the Windows clients, whenever multiple
clients are started at the same time. For example, at 8:00 AM (when around
30 PCs get started simoultaneously, I get this in smbd.log:

This keeps throwing errors for aprox 8 minutes and then everything turns
back to normal and runs smoothly. I'm not sure why it doesn't always
happen, though.

Any thoughts? I know there are several oplock related features on smb.conf
but not sure about their real world effects.

Thanks a lot.

George
