I found out a few things. The problem is when act closes the locks are not
being cleared. I can make it work by creating an additional share just for
the database that has no locking at all, but I think I am risking data
corruption. I don't need access to the database simultaneously so if anyone
knows how to force the locks to be cleared when I exit act so the next
person can get it that would be great.

Subject: [Samba] act database problem
I have all my Novell stuff finally moved over to the samba server and most
all of it is working. I have a problem with an act database though.
Whenever I try to open it windows 2000 reports that it is locked by another
user. I check the status and the files are not open at all so it should not
be a locking issue. Other files (spreadsheets, docs etc..) all open fine.
The system is RH7.3 with Samba 2.2.5 I have a bunch of engineers sharing
solidworks files and they are having no problems, only act it appears. Any
help will be appreciated.
