I haver recently set up a samba to act as a domain controller. At first glance the setup seems to work fine however when I try to move large files (800 meg +)from my desktop to the server I receive the following erroe after about one minute: "the specified network name is no longer available". I have ensureed that the Suse firewall2 and WindowsXP firewall are turned off. Does anyone have any idea? Router Specs: Netgear WiFi /w 4 Wired Cat5 ports Firewall Status: On (Tried off as well) Server Specs: Suse 9.1 Linux RAID 5 Controller Samba 3.0.20a Domain Controller Firewall status: off Desktop Specs: Windows XP Pro Connecting to Domain is Successful Fiewall status: off Can copy/read and write files smaller than 800 mb Samba conf file: # smb.conf is the main Samba configuration file.

I can second this. Just a normal samba server. When I connect anonymously to a share copying a file (doesn't have to be too big, +20MB) I get the error " cannot copy <file>: The specified network name is no longer available". However when I connect to the same share as an authenticated user, copying/moving works just fine. I am using Samba 3.0.14a-SUSE9.3, the Windows PC in question is a WinXP SP2 (firewall off), IP through router as does the linux pc. My configuration is [global] server string = %h - Samba Server workgroup = HOMELAN security = user map to guest = Bad User restrict anonymous = no domain master = No max protocol = NT server signing = Auto browseable = yes writeable = no guest ok = no case sensitive = auto create mask = 0600 directory mask = 0700 invalid users = root add machine script = /usr/sbin/useradd -c Machine -d /var/lib/nobody -s /bin/false %m$ domain logons = No netbios name = Arrakis read only = Yes [public] comment = Public Library of Arrakis path = /world/ guest ok = yes #authenticated share [world$] comment = World Access List (secure) path = /world/ valid users = martinp writeable = yes create mask = 0666 directory mask = 0777 read only = No
Created attachment 1568 [details] SMB log file. I am copying 'Beyond the Clouds...'
i think this is not an issue with recent samba versions. otherwise, please file a new bug report and attach log files and more details. thank you.
