Hi there I'm a newbie and have the following problem : Have set up samba 2.2.3a-6 on Debian 3. Thought I could have this server as file/asset management server. Put asset management software on a share and have a couple of test pc's access this share. They try to execute the file on this share that collects data locally and then puts this information on a subdirectory of the share they are accessing. The software then puts a error log on the parent directory saying that it cannot create the file. There is a file written to the subdirectory but having a 0 kb reading. The log file on Samba shows the following: Smbd/oplock.c:oplock_break(834)oplock_break:client failure in break - shutting down this smbd Smbd/oplock.c:oplock_break(758)oplock_break:receive_smberror(success)oplock failed for file auditdata/ina32.exe(dev = 301, inode = 32875, file_id = 13) Gibberish to me - can someone help me please?
