I have been running samba on a debian woody based server for a long time now as a PDC. Today, I finally ran into a problem where samba stopped responding and the only way I found to fix it was to do a 'killall smbd' and let the processes re-spawn. Well, a couple hours later, the problem came back. Doing some google searching, I found one hit where someone referenced the maximum number of connections in samba being 128. I checked and saw that there were 128 smbd processes running when it stopped responding.
So, the question is, is there an easy way to up that number without having to pull down the source package and recompile samba by hand? (I really prefer to have binary packages, just for ease of upgrading....) I've been searching google, but so far my only hits have involved recompiling.....any help will be greatly appreciated! -Ken -- +-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-+ | | | | Ken Long | E-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] | | | Voice: (757)494-0722 | | Network Engineer | FAX: (757)494-0748 | | | | +-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-+ | The opinions expressed here do not necessarily reflect those of | | Metro Machine Corp. | +-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-+ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
