similar to: Multiuser database application / file locks

Hello, I've been working with a xBase database (similar to dBase) in a multiuser application. There are like 40 users working on the database on the same time reading and like 10 writing information. Sometimes the CDX files (Index Files) get corrupted and is it's necessary to pack the tables (rebuild the indexes). I have notice using the smbstatus -B command the following Pid

from smbstatus man page: -B|--byterange causes smbstatus to include byte range locks. the fact is that 4 different connections are opening the same byte range in 'MOVCTA.cdx' That's about all that I can get from your command result dump.

I have a file server running with Samba over Debian Sarge 3.1 R1. This File server store MDB and XLS files. Could anybody give me an optimal setup for my samba server (smb.conf). Actually, the performance is very poor.

Hi, I'm still a bit new to Linux and Wine, so please bear with me if this is a stupid question. I've been putting all my windows applications in their own wineprefixes, and now I thought I'd put some of them in my data partition, because there's always lots of free space there and many of my games take a lot of space. But when I try to create a new wineprefix on my data

Are the shares set to oplocks = no ? That sometimes has a role in database corruption.

Thanks for the tip. Is veto oplocks different to oplocks = no? Just now I run into an error, but this time I have this log: ../lib/util/util.c:401(fcntl_lock) fcntl_lock: fcntl lock gave errno 11 (resource temporally unavailable) fcntl_lock: lock failed at offset 2147483646 count 1 op 37 type 1 (resource temporally unavailable) Does this give you any clue of how the problem can be solved? The

Hi, for some time now I'm trying to create the best environment/solve a sharing conflict around a DOS application (Clippered dBase I suscpect) that one of our clients is using and distributing over about 20 Sun 450's on a shared service 'servershare'. On every Sun there are multiple Windows 95 clients connected to diverse shares amongst which this 'servershare'. On this

As it seems that we will be a year or so away from database application programs for linux like there are for windows (Foxpro, Paradox, dBASE, Access, Visual Basic, etc.), I am attempting to use windows as a development system (on a separate computer) and they copying the application to a linux computer (suse 9.3 to 10.1) to see if it will run under wine. It seems that the testing that has

I am trying to run a home made Visual Basic 6 application on SUSE Linux Desktop 10, using "wine-1.1.18-2.1" Installation of VB 6 Application went smooth, and creates the directory under "/root/.wine/drive_c/Program\ Files/PrjPatientInfo". I then did the following # cd /root/.wine/drive_c/Program\ Files # cd PrjPatientInfo # wine cmd C:\Program Files\PrjPatientInfo>

Is it possible? If so, can you explain to a newbie (me) precisely how it is done? Don't take any shortcuts with your explanations, please: I'm a bona fida idiot

Hello all! I discover a strange thing. We use and develop DOS financial accounting application, written on Xbase (formerly known as Clipper). This application agressively uses of file sharing and locking (byte-range and all possible for DOS combinations), creates and uses huge amount of index (NTX) and Dbase III (DBF) files on network shared resource. Network clients are Windows 98se,

I wanted to ask to the wine experts something about WINEPREFIX or the crossover bottles... how does the concept of "bottles" compares/differs with the concept of application virtualization (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Application_Virtualization) used by VMware's Thinstall (http://www.thinstall.com/products/virtualization_suite.php) (aside for the .exe container*) and

I read somewhere that in order for a program to work properly in Wine it should be installed in a clean enviroment, something along the lines of one software conflicting with anothers drivers/runtime/apps/etc. Is this true? Does this mean that I can only have one program installed with Wine at a time? Can one not create several 'fresh enviroments'?

Hi All, I am experiencing issues with the use of DBase files on a Samba 2.0.5a share, that appear to be due to locking problems. Basically, I have test programs for both DOS and Win32 that does nothing but append records to a DBase database (DBF/MDX files). If more than one client PC is appending to this file, data loss occurs. I get random data loss, with records lost, and index file

I am attempting to create a folder for my wineprefixes on my external hard disk. The plan is to symlink to that location from inside my user folder (ie. ~/.wine/PREFIXES -> $iomega/.wineprefixes) For reference: $iomega=/media/Iomega_HDD This is a 400GB external drive with a single NTFS partition. The plan is to create folders for all my WINEPREFIXes at $iomega/.wineprefixes (Example:

Apologies for what is probably a silly question ! If one installs a Windows program in Linux with Wine which requires things like Winetricks to install some Windows stuff, is the whole installation within the .Wine folder ? I assume that when installing Windows programs (Including anything else that is necessary, eg. from Winetricks) then everything is indeed within .Wine with no changes at all

Hello, What is the best way to protect multiuser systems from brute force attacks? I am setting up a relatively loose DenyHosts policy, but I like the idea of locking an account for a time if too many attempts are made, but to balance this with keeping the user from making a helpdesk call. What are some policies/techniques that have worked for this list with minimal hassle? Thanks! -Eugene
