I have a stock Mandrake 8.1 server running with Samba 2.2.2.
Applications like goldmine, ACT, or access etc... keep getting corrupted
index's (multiple users using these applications w/ multiuser licenses).
This does not happen on NT.
Here is my smb.conf (NOTE the oplocks settings):
[global]
workgroup = NCPLA
netbios name = NCP01A
netbios aliases = Linux
server string = Samba Server %v
encrypt passwords = Yes
null passwords = Yes
passwd program = /usr/bin/passwd %u
passwd chat = *New*UNIX*password* %n\n *ReType*new*UNIX*password* %n\n
username map = /etc/samba/smbusers
unix password sync = Yes
log file = /var/log/samba/log.%m
dns proxy = No
comment = Connected to NCP01a
path = /tmp
valid users = @adm, @admin, @users
oplocks = No
level2 oplocks = No
strict locking = Yes
[apps]
path = /data/apps
valid users = @adm @users
admin users = @adm @users
write list = @adm @users
read only = No
create mask = 0777
force create mode = 0777
directory mask = 0777
force directory mode = 0777
guest ok = Yes
hide dot files = No
fstype = SAMBA
I have searched the archives and found many other people with this issue
but never an answer (judging by the number of such postings, I should
think that this question would make it into the FAQ).
I have also heard from the others with this problem but we have not been
able to nail down a solution.
At the end is a testparm.
Any help would be GREATLY appreciated.
I will post a summary.
Thank You
