In the samba domain I admin, one of the computers runs the Peachtree accounting software. Today, McAfee antivirus was installed on that box (not my doing) and now Peachtree keeps giving "Locking table limit reached" errors. Is this an error from samba, Windows, or Peachtree? Is there a limit to the number of file locks samba can grant at one time? -- Andrew Gaffney Network Administrator Skyline Aeronautics, LLC.

This is a peachtree error. I can't tell you what caused it specifically, because we dropped peachtree, but it is definately Peachtree. -- -- Paul Gienger Office: 701-281-1884 Applied Engineering Inc.

Samba is acting as a PDC for a NT-style domain (non-AD). smb.conf for that share is: [skylinef] path = /share/skylinef valid users = @accounting,rgetter read only = No create mask = 0777 directory mask = 0777 Nothing in the global section is relevant (all domain related). The Windows box is running XP Pro SP2. -- Andrew Gaffney Network Administrator Skyline Aeronautics, LLC.
