18 Set the write-behind size as follows:
0 = write to sector boundary 1 = use a multiple of the size that the user
is writing
The default is 1.
19 Force 512-byte maximum transfers to and from core servers. On some
systems, core servers, or servers with the same base SMB protocols as
LAN Manager, could handle a maximum of 512-byte buffers. Set this
bit only if your network has this type of server and your workstation
accesses the server.
The default is 0.
20 Flush pipes and devices on DosBufReset or DosClose as follows:
0 = only files/devices opened by caller; spin until flushed 1 = only
files/devices opened by caller; flush only once 2 = all files and all
short-term pipe/device I/O; spin until flushed 3 = all files and all short-
term pipe/device I/O; flush only once 4 = all files and pipe/device I/O;
spin until flushed 5 = all files and pipe/device I/O; flush only once
The default is 0.
21 Use encryption if the server supports it.
The default is 1.
22 Control log entries for multiple occurrences of an error. Prevent a
recurring error from filling up the error log by activating an interim
table.
Non-zero values for this heuristic define the number of errors in the
table. For example, if you set the heuristic to 5, the error table holds
5 errors in the following form:
Error identification number Number of occurrences
Set the heuristic as follows:
0 = log all error occurrences in the error log 1 = use error table, size 1
2 = use error table, size 2 3 = use error table, size 3 4 = use error table,
size 4 5 = use error table, size 5 6 = use error table, size 6 7 = use
error table, size 7 8 = use error table, size 8 9 = use error table, size 9
The default is 0.
For each entry in the table, LAN Manager writes to the error log on the
1st, 4th, 8th, 16th, 32nd, and every further 32nd occurrence of the
error.
When an error occurs, LAN Manager determines whether the error is
already listed in the table. If the error is in the table, LAN Manager
increments the number of occurrences. If the error is not in the table,
LAN Manager adds it to the table; if the table is full, LAN Manager
discards the entry with the lowest number of occurrences to make room
for the new entry.
Note “Out of Resource” errors are logged only once per resource type
regardless of the value of this heuristic.
