Hi, I am trying to use Samba with a Swedish dental journaling system called Opus. The problem is that the database gets corrupted and I suspect it has something to do with some kind of locking or some parameter that has to be added in smb.conf. Every client resides on Windows 2000 Professional; the program uses MDAC and Jet to access an Access database (opus.mdb) that resides on a samba share with no special parameters added. Hopefully, and most probably, someone out there knows what I?m talking about and has some kind of quick fix for this situation. Thanks! -- Adrian

Generally Access Database problems are down to oplock problems, you could try disabling oplocks on the samba server, or upgrading to the latest samba, which has fewer oplock problems.
