Greetings All,
I am trying to turn off oplocks and can not seem to figure
out which parameters to use. I have tried setting
oplocks = False in both the global section and in my
share section. I have also tried setting veto oplock files = /*.txt/
in my share section. Each time I try this and restart the
smbd program I get the same behaviour on the PC side. The file is
cached on the PC side (I am running Windows 95) The odd thing
is that if I decrease the file size on the unix side the PC
side is also truncated, but will still show the contents of the
original file, not the new one. If anyone has got oplocks turned
off and could send me their smb.conf file I would really appreciate
it. Thanks in advance,
David.
(My current smb.conf file)
[global]
printing = sysv
printcap name = /etc/printcap
load printers = yes
keepalive = 60
guest account = nobody
socket options = TCP_NODELAY
username map = /opt/samba/lib/umap
read prediction = False
oplocks = no
debug level = 11
lock directory = /opt/samba/lib/locks
kernel oplocks = no
ole locking compatibility = no
share modes = yes
locking = yes
strict locking = yes
[pc]
path = /NEWPC
public = yes
only guest = yes
writable = yes
printable = no
; I have tried share modes both yes and no, that doesnt seem to
; change anything.
share modes = yes
; I think setting oplocks False should do the trick but it doesn't
; seem to help.
oplocks = False
; So I tried to set veto to veto all files, but again this didn't
; seem to help any.
veto oplock files = /*/
