I suspect this is a hardware problem completely unrelated to Samba. In the past I've had similar trouble with various Realtek nics that would work ok for light use, but would break when attempting any kind of large file transfer (by any protocol: smb, ftp, scp, etc). I "solved" the problem by replacing the offending nics. So the first thing you should do is try copying your files via a different protocol: tftp, ftp, scp, nfs, etc. Once that fails, you can open a kernel bug report. Alternatively, you can try a different NIC. No response in a long time, so I'm closing this. |
From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows 98) Description of problem: I run RedHat 8.0 on a Toshiba Sattelite Pro 4600. When I transfer a lot of files from a W2K pc to the samba share then after a minute or so it is reported on the W2K pc that the network name of the linux box can no longer be found. I have to deactivate/activat the networc card on the linux box to get the connection working again. The internal network card of the Toshiba seems to work ok under other circumstances such as using the browser to internet. thank you for advice, regards, Rene Kraneveld Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.install RH 8.0 on Toshiba Sattelite Pro 4600 2.activate samba share 3.transfer lots of files from Windows pc to share Actual Results: network connection fails after about 2 minutes Expected Results: no loss of connection Additional info:
