samba - Jul 2000 - My program hang as it reads the .dbf file

good day to all.

I have a clipper .exe on every workstation which is a hybrid of Win95 and Win98.
The application runs on dos box.  The main purpose of the app is to verify the
status of members, thus reading a .dbf file on a linux box(rh 6.0) with samba.

Mine app just hang when verifying. What should i do?

mon <-- help me!

	First of all, make sure that ordinary files can be
	grabbed from that share.

	Then, turn log level up to 3 to get verbose Samba logs,
	and run the .exe, allowing it to stay hung for several
	minutes.

	While running the .exe, look at the smbd log using tail -f,
	and see what Samba is up to.  Feel free to mail me the
	last 20 lines or so of the log...
