Subject: Tunning SAMBA

Hello:
I need to maintain a SMB service in one 6H1 server with 4 processors and 6GB
of RAM.
This server acts like an Oracle Financials application server (not DB
server), and should maintain a windows-like share.

I can "see", with nmon (nmon v6g) that three smbd processes take about 90%
of CPU utilization during office hours (from 9 a.m. to 7 p.m.), this 90% is
composed, basically, of 30% of cpu-user and 60% cpu-system processing.

SAMBA server starts "from" inetd, it is not a separate daemon. 7 months ago
there were a few users (<50), now there are >200.

Does anybody has an idea about how to tune SAMBA on RS/6000? Is there any
documentation about problems like this one?

Thanks in advance.
Regards

Ignacio
