I have a FreeBSD machine serving as (among other things) a Samba server for an XP instance running under VirtualBox. The XP application is a data gathering one that polls continuously. I have set up things so that XP mounts the Samba share, and logs it's data there. Problem is that every morning I come in to find that the XP app is complaining of disk problems from the share. I am fairly certain that this problem is occurring in the middle of the night, when my Amanda backups run. This does load the network fairly good. The FreeBSD box, and the Linux box are on the same switch, and same subnet. Anyone have suggestions as to how to address this issue? -- One of the main causes of the fall of the roman empire was that, lacking zero, they had no way to indicate successful termination of their C programs.
