...t beeing able to start the batch file and other files that are needed for the whole app. But since this was not sufficient for the multiusage of the application we had to go as far as defining 'share modes = no', thus the share modes that are disabled by this option are DENY_DOS, DENY_ALL, DENY_READ, DENY_WRITE, DENY_NONE and DENY_FCB. That made the application usable in a multi-user environment. But major downside of this is that for just this application the WHOLE SHARE is now in the unwanted modus of having no locking whatsoever going on.... The next problem now is that for untraceble...

Hi there, We are thinking about sharing same files: - OS2/Win clients with Samba - Linux clients with NFS. So, the same files would be shared by 2 different protocols. Looking at the open.c samba code, there seems to be no check / no error (sharing violation) returned to the smb client when the file is already locked by an NFS client. - So, even if a file is opened and locked by an NFS client,

...the return codes of locking calls to tell clients that everything is OK. The second class of locking is the "deny modes". These are set by an application when it opens a file to determine what types of access should be allowed simultaneously with its open. A client may ask for DENY_NONE, DENY_READ, DENY_WRITE or DENY_ALL. There are also special compatability modes called DENY_FCB and DENY_DOS. You can disable share modes using "share modes = no". This may be useful on a heavily loaded server as the share modes code is very slow. See also the FAST_SHARE_MODES option in the Makefil...
