SAMBA: Too many files open causing error
(this is at work)
I am running Samba 3.0 on Redhat 9 on a PIII 500 My client machine is a win2k pro I have the machine up and running, with domain... user access.... shared dirs... everything is OK But, I moved the database to be held on the linux machine's hard drive ... and directory called /server I have read/write permissions, and have tested it, and my user owns the directory as well as files. If i use a non-relational file, everything is fine... read write, save, close. I open my database program, and it gets open about 20 files. Then it crashes my windows machine for about 5 minutes and says that "the information on \Device\......blah blah.....\filename.db can not be accessed. The information is lost" then the program continues to hang until i close it with taskmgr. I look at the linux box, and samba is still running under "smbstatus" i have each of the files listed that opened properly, followed by my username and LOCKED.... so i guess samba still thinks it is open... but the files go away after about 10 more minutes and smb works properly. My question: Is there a certain number of files that I am allowed to open? am I just opening too many? I have almost 100 files for a total of 250+mb I appreciate any help i am given. If i need to post more info, let me know |
please help!
