[WBEL-users] Samba and WBEL4

[Francies Moore]

Hi all

We have recently set up a WBEL 4.0 box running Samba for about 35 users 
on Win2K.  There are problems appearing with our network - the time on 
the various machines is drifting apart and hopefully my technical 
support man is going to deal with this using NTP.  Also there are issues 
with the speed of the network switches ...

However, over the last couple of days repeated errors are appearing in 
dmesg and /var/log/messages;

server kernel: lease broken - owner pid = 1234  /* various numbers here */

I have changed smb.conf to remove kernel oplocks, and await results to 
see if this stops it.

Has anyone else had this message appear, is it dangerous, and is it 
possibly connected with the timing problem?

Also has anyone any suggestions for a (free!) NTP client for Windows 2K?

Thanks

Francies
