Hi,
I am currently getting semaphore timeout messages when my Windows based clients try to access Samba (2.0.7) on the FreeBSD box (4.1). Is it possible that my smb.conf is causing this? I will include it below. Also, one of the shares is pointing to a ccd virtual disk which consists of two 15GB partitions. Could this be causing problems? I will include my cdd.conf in this message as well.
This behavior is erratic. Sometimes machines log in just fine, other times no go. A machine may access the shares fine with one user, and if someone else logs in two minutes later from the same machine they cannot access the Samba shares. Usually, if a user cannot get to the Samba shares, they can go read a share on a different machine, then come back to the Samba machine and get in just fine. It is really annoying, however, especially waiting for mapped drives to time out when logging in.
I didn't experience these problems in 4.0 with Samba 2.0.6, but my smb.conf has changed since then, plus I wasn't using ccd then. If I have to, I will return to 4.0/2.0.6, but this seems like backtracking, which I don't like to do.
--smb.conf:
[global]
#Server setup
encrypt passwords = yes
local master = no
netbios name = JEEVES
server string =
workgroup = BREENO
#Network configuration
allow hosts = 172.16.2. localhost
#Global share values
browseable = no
guest account = nobody
guest ok = yes
guest only = yes
hide dot files = yes
invalid users = root
map to guest = Bad User
security = user
writeable = no
#Logging options
debug timestamp = yes
log level = 2
log file = /var/log/samba.log.%m
max log size = 50
[homes]
comment = %U's home folder
guest ok = no
guest only = no
inherit permissions = yes
valid users = lex
writeable = yes
[Music]
browseable = yes
comment = Music folder
path = /export/music
[Upload]
browseable = yes
comment = Upload folder
inherit permissions = yes
path = /export/upload
writeable = yes
[Optra]
browseable = yes
comment = Lexmark Optra E310 printer
path = /var/spool/samba
print command = /usr/bin/lpr -r %s
printable = yes
printer = lp
printing = BSD
--EOF
--ccd.conf:
#
# /etc/ccd.conf
#
# ccd ileave flags compnent devices
ccd0 0 none /dev/ad0s2e /dev/ad3s2e
--EOF
Thanks in advance for any help.
