No, I have not any problem. With use sendfile = yes it works great. My question is, why is this configuration option set to be off in CentOS? You know - when I want to read something about oplocks (advantages & disadvantages) it was very easy - there are tons of documentation. When I want to read something about use sendfile, it is big problem, becuse there is nothing. My question is why is this option disabled as default in CentOS? And I am not alone with this question - http://fixunix.com/samba/184987-samba-red-hat-use-sendfile.html It is two WD Caviar GP in SW RAID 1 and LVM2, so there can´t be a problem. 2009/8/25 JohnS <jses27@xxxxxxxxx>: > > On Mon, 2009-08-24 at 19:01 +0200, happymaster23 wrote: >> This is not problem of disks, this is problem of Samba (operating >> systems in network are Windows XP and Windows 7 only, so this should >> not be problem caused by Windows). >> >> I am asking because of risks and disadvantages.
