Just recently installed 2.0.6 on a RedHat 6.0 system. Everything seems fine except for an old nasty DOS accounting application. It only allows one person into the system at a time. It says the files are in use/locked. Looking for your suggestions/comments. The dos app has worked fine off windows 95 shares, and netware. Thanks, John jderung@info-link.net
Start by viewing the connection with smbstatus. Maybe this will give you valuable info on your locking.

Hi,
I have 2 problems with samba V2.0.6 on IRIX 6.5.6 (Origin2000 HW):
1. making it with the IRIX C compiler, all is made fine and runs fine.
But if I use gcc for making, then after installation, only nmbd
runs, but smbd dies without any error msg.
My gcc version is 2.95.2.
Known?
2. Logging of smbd: In my smb.conf if have an entry as
log file = /usr/local/samba/var/log.smb-origin
Then, after samba is started, this log file is created.
So far so good. But an additional log file is created
called "log.smb" whose name cannot be controlled in
the smb.conf file.
Any workaround?
Regards
Joachim Backes

This should be fixed in 2.0.7.

(for the "log file" entries [see above], I took different names, which run fine). Therefore, I mean that a l l such files should be configurable.
