Hello, I run samba 2.0.6 on a HP 9000 server with HP/UX 10.20. When i worked with 2.0.5a version, there was no problem. The problem is: The unix user create a file by using a software. Then the user try to open this file with excel. The first time, excel refuse to open the file, or open it empty or simply crash ! If the user close excel and try again this works well. Is there a patch to avoid that (i try 2.0.7 but the problem is still remaining) ? The share used is "users" and "geodis".
