Example config works fast for us.....

Here is our working samba conf file /etc/smb.conf

Quote:

[global]
workgroup = UNIX
encrypt passwords = yes
domain logons = yes
server string = Samba on UNIX
netbios name = ATHLON
hosts allow = 192.168.0.169 localhost
interfaces = 192.168.0.155/255.255.255.0
log level = 2
default service = data
local master = yes
wins support = yes
name resolve order = wins lmhosts hosts bcast
dns proxy = yes
security = user
os level = 34
preferred master = yes
domain master = yes

[homes]
browsable = no
writable = yes

[unix]
path = /usr/local/unix_files
valid users = unix, nobody, root
browseable = yes
comment = UNIX Disk on WWW.UNIX.COM
volume = UNIX-Disk
guest ok = yes
writeable = yes

[data]
path = /usr/local
browseable = yes
comment = Data Disk on WWW.UNIX.COM
volume = Data-Disk
guest ok = yes
writeable = yes

[netlogon]
comment = Domain Logon Service
path = /usr/local/samba/login
public = no
writeable = no
browsable = no

This configuration works fine (very fast).... is only one master controller (samba server) with a bunch of clients on the SAME subnet (ethernet segment). I would suggest you try something like this (without SSL) first to see if this is fast for you.

oidentd_masq.conf

oidentd_masq.conf(5)						File Formats Manual					      oidentd_masq.conf(5)

NAME

       oidentd_masq.conf - oidentd IP masquerading/NAT configuration file.

DESCRIPTION

       If you are using IP masquerading or NAT, oidentd can optionally return a username for connections from other machines.  Support for this is
       specified by calling oidentd with the -m (or --masq) flag and by creating an /etc/oidentd_masq.conf file.

       oidentd can also forward requests for an IP masqueraded connection to the machine from which connection originates by way of the -f option.
       This  will  only  work if the host to which the connection is forwarded is running oidentd with the -P (proxy) flag, or if the host's ident
       daemon will return a valid reply regardless of the input supplied by and the address of the host requesting the info  (some  ident  daemons
       for windows do this, maybe others).

FORMAT

       <IP Address|Hostname>[/<Mask>] <Ident Response> <System Type>

       The  first  field  contains the IP address or the hostname of a machine that IP masquerades through the machine on which oidentd runs.  The
       mask parameter can be either a network mask or a mask in CIDR notation.	A mask of 24 is equivalent to  255.255.255.0,  a  mask	of  16	is
       equivalent to 255.255.0.0, etc.

       The second field specifies the reply that oidentd will return for lookups to the host matching the IP address specified in the first param-
       eter.

       The third field specifies the operating system the machine matching the first parameter is running.

EXAMPLES

       <Host>[/<Mask>]		<Ident Response>    <System Type>
       192.168.1.1		     someone		 UNIX
       192.168.1.2		     noone		 WINDOWS
       192.168.1.1/32		     user1		 UNIX
       192.168.1.0/24		     user3		 UNIX
       192.168.0.0/16		     user4		 UNIX
       somehost 		     user5		 UNIX
       192.168.1.0/255.255.255.0     user6		 UNIX
