i check an anormaly bug in a few software place on a RH6.2 with samba 2.2.0 before i'have install a good 2.07 samba but for win2K support i need 2.2... all the files from the system are readable /writeable from the serveur ex: i copy all the files from the software on the serveur to another one (under win98) i try my client software and it's works so there is no diffrence from files only the access to it (samba 2.2.0!) the error from the client is can't write to file ... g:\wcpta\sarladeli\temp\impO0000.DBF and from sbmstatus 28095 DENY_NONE RDWR NONE /usr/win/Wcpta/SARLADEL/temp/IMPO0000.DBF Wed May 2 22:59:27 2001 in the same family of software i have another one who clains that it can't write to the file... IFS timeout on write (offs=0 Size=512 Nb tries =50 sleep time =100ms max =200ms I have tested to put strict locking to no and it works now with 2.2.0 perhaps some one have an idea Lionel Drevon ldrevon@adeli.fr Adeli http://www.adeli.fr 618 Av.
