Yes I get that. I am able to get it to work properly by giving complete
world access to the file and folders, which means basically it has to be on
a share by itself, or one that has complete rwxrwxrwx. I would of course
prefer to have only group access but that doesn't work for this act
database. I also turned off op locks. Don't know if that will cause any
problems. but it made the file close properly when someone gets out of it.

Subject: samba with redhat and act
I am having similar problems since moving from 2.0.7 samba.
when you type in "smbstatus" do you get status codes that say:
0x3 and 0x1

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. Tony
