While it is amazing that Sourcesafe runs under Wine, its performance leaves a lot to be desired. I am using Sourcesafe with Wine (my setup is documented at http://www.kegel.com/linux/vss-howto.html ). The Wine I'm using is from CVS as of last week. My workstation is a dual Pentium Xeon 1400MHz from Dell running 2.4.10. (That's a Pentium 4 Xeon using RDRAM, so it's probably about

I went to the trouble of setting up Visual Sourcesafe on a Linux system recently. There was a fair amount of futzing required, so I've documented what I had to do at http://www.kegel.com/linux/vss-howto.html Comments and corrections welcome. I'd also love to know how to get this working without hardcoding NT usernames and passwords! The commandline app appears to be fully functional

I have been running Wine-20010824 updated via cvs to Sept 21 quite happily for some time. Today I updated to Debian testing's version of wine, which is 20011108. It seems to work-- but commandline windows apps are now behaving very strangely. Wine seems to put the console into raw mode! This causes programs that read lines from standard input, like ss.exe (part of visual sourcesafe), to

Hello! A good day to you all. we've recently had some problems with samba (2.2.0) and sourcesafe. We had one particular project with over 700 files on it, and we've just recently encountered some problems with it, i.e. "corrupted" files from sourcesafe. i've read the archives, and someone mentioned that the number is actually unlimited(or 6.4million at the very least)...so

I am trying to run ss.exe using builtin DLLs. No luck at all:( It seems it fails to send the message (sendmsg?) somewhere. At the end, I get windows message box with the error. Any ideas? BTW, why does it ask username and password in console? Regards, Sergey FIXME:pthread_rwlock_rdlock FIXME:pthread_rwlock_unlock FIXME:pthread_rwlock_rdlock FIXME:pthread_rwlock_unlock

Hi, I'm been using Samba for some time and I have been bugged by a problem with SourceSafe. I finally took some time to see what is going on and found the source of the problem (well, not in the source code though). I'm partially responsible, I have Unix files with the following rights "r--rw---" and Samba does not deal with these very well. I am now makind sure that this case

I find apps running in wine are unbearably slow. In particular - HTML-Kit by Chami. I really like this editor on NT at work, I want to use it at home on my FreeBSD box. It works in wine, just very very slowly. I do not have a windows partition. I'm running wine by itself. Any suggestions on ways to get speedier results? -- Chip

hi, recently we tried moving our large source safe databases to samba. After a day of use, the databases started showing signs of corruption (strange error messages from the SS client). However, it was discovered that the server was using a very sick ethernet port, so we guess that might be the reason for the corruption (sourcesafe is a really lame product but we cannot migrate away from it just

Hi, I run Samba 2.0.5a on Linux 2.2.12 (Slackware). My clients get an error regularly (Windows95) "Network path not found" and then they lose their connection completely. The server logs the following: [1999/09/07 17:30:01, 1] smbd/service.c:make_connection(521) sbit12 (137.56.40.139) connect to service sbitdata as user sbit (uid=1000, gid=100) (pid 134) [1999/09/07 17:33:10, 0]

jiva, in some ways this question, or at least the answer, is best seen on samba@samba.anu.edu.au not just on samba-technical. i don't recieve the samba digest, so don't know if you've posted it there. so. question. by "workstation" in paragraph 4, do you mean the "workstation smb client-side cacheing, which means opportunistic locking" or do you mean "the

Hi all Today I've tried to run SSafe with wine+win2K. And failed:) My log is in attachment. SSafe (or wine?) asked for my domain login and password and then gave me the error message (also attached). Any ideas? The file D:\Progam Files\Microsoft Visual Studio\vss\ssusexp.chm exist. Does case make any difference (my filename is in lowercase but in the dialog it is in uppercase)? For some

Following the discussion earlier, I knocked together a trunk- compatible "facets" monkey-patch, if anyone wants to play with it: <http://aviewfromafar.net/2007/10/21/quick-and-dirty-facets-in-rspec- trunk> It''s simplistic, but it will do for me for the time being.

I saw several questions regarding 'resume transfer' support in sftp come up, in the archives, but no real satisfying answer. I had a particular itch myself, so I scratched it with a quick hack. Patch attached, since it's not really big. To explain, I need to use ssh (scp or sftp) to transfer files to and from a Windows box. No other method is available. And the Windows machine has no

Hi, all, This isn''t about rspec, but this list has people whose opinions I respect. So, I''m looking for a new version control system for my local development. I was going to install subversion, but I''ve heard rumors of people using some newer ones. Thoughts? I''d like to be able to run it either locally or on a home server. If I run it off a home server, then

Is anyone out there running Microsoft's Visual Source Save with a samba share? We are doing so here and are encountering difficulties. The "working directory" is a samba share. It seems that VSS is not manipulating file permissions appropriately when items are checked in and out. User always has write access to the item. Is anyone using MS VSS successfully with samba and care to

Hi all I am trying to make wine load SourceSafe. After long f...ing with truetype fonts and constantly crashing xfs, I moved all my truetype font paths into XF86Config and now wine does not crash during the calculation of font metrics. Thanks to FAQs. Now, on wine startup, after rather long font refresh, I constantly get Xlib error. See subject. What's wrong with my Xlib (from XFree86

Hey All, I'm having problems with samba/windows file attributes. I'm using roaming profiles (Win2000) with Samba serving as the PDC. Samba also stores the profiles. The 'Create Mask' is 0744 and the 'force create' is 00. Now the problem is my read-only files are not kept at read-only when I log in. Basically, I create a *read-only* file in my window profiles directory
