is turned on. Can anybody
kind to confirm with me?
Our network is using a mix of Win2k server, Win2k Pro, Win98, Win95 and
WinMe machines, where the
Win2k server is the domain controller and terminal service applications
server and the Samba is a member
fileserver of the domain. All workstations logon and mount the samba file
services.
We'd like to check if the problem could be solved by setting the oplock
false or any other tweaking is needed.
Thank you very much!
Vincent

This is a great resource for LDAP and Samba:

But it uses an older version of Samba -

I have been searching google/deja for discussion about LDAP and Samba in
general for weeks now, but can't find any good answers, just lots of people
asking the same questions.
We are planning a major (10,000+ accounts) roll out of Samba to replace a
Netware system, and LDAP would be a MAJOR help in doing this, I'm surprised
it's not more of an issue for people.

Yeah!! That's it.
I actually just installed the Solaris SkIP module instead of getting egd
to work. It was much easier to install and test. But samba is acting
correctly now.
Thanks, I owe you one!!!

Hi Vincent,
Probably the easiest way to see if oplocks is your problem is just try it;
On one of the shares that you see this problem, add the smb.conf parameter
oplocks = no
OR if you know the extension of the files that you are having this issue
with, use the smb.conf parameter
veto oplocks = /*.<extension>/
And then have multiple people try to access these files and see if the
problem goes away.
Hope this helps,
Don
