Hi, I have a setup of Windows NT machines and SUN Solaris (UNIX) machines. I have installed samba on one of the UNIX machine. I am able to connect to the UNIX machine using samba from any of my NT machines. I want only few of my NT machines should be able to connect to the UNIX machine (with samba). To do so, I have set following in my smb.conf file hosts allow = hostname1, hostname2, ... I

Fellow Samba-meisters, I'm wondering if anyone can share real-world experience running PC database apps (like M$ Access) with database files shared from a samba server. How well has the record locking proven to work? I will be setting up a small office network for a client w/ a Linux server running samba as a file/print server and 4 or 5 Win95 clients running Office97 apps. This is

I installed samba on an Intel based Server running Red Hat 5.2. I can access files on the shares I created but I run into a problem accessing a database program written in MS Access. It seems that only one person at a time can open the database. I get an error of "File is already in use" . What are the optimal settings for accessing MS Access in a multi-user application? Thanks for

How do I allow two or more users access to the same File at the same time. I've been using a Windows 98 server with a Microsoft Access 97 database. Every user on the network can access the database at the same time and read & write to it as long as they aren't using the same record. Linux and Samba won't let me do this. I'm using Linux 7.3 and Samba 2.2.7a

G''day everyone, I''ve got Rails up and running, but am having trouble finding a stable MySQL client for OSX. I was looking at the ''Creating a weblog in 15 minutes'' screencast from rubyonrails.org - what MySQL client is David using? I''ve found the MySQL clients (Administrator / Query Browser) to be highly unstable and rather pathetic under OSX. If

@Work requires me to manipulate the MS Access database (mdb) file located on an XP box that is an integral part of a third party application that is central to the business. Does anyone have experience doing so? I have used odbtp in the recent past but it is extremely difficult to set up on the linux box as I learned when I recently upgraded from CentOS 4.x to 5.x. Is there another way to get

Active Record doesn''t appear to have support for table inheritance implemented in PostgreSQL as described in http://www.postgresql.org/docs/8.0/interactive/ddl-inherit.html. Is anyone working on such a thing or is their some compelling reason to avoid this feature? I am new to Ruby and Rails, but it doesn''t seem like it would be to difficult to adapt the current Active

I am trying to use some ms access databases in R (version 1.9.1 or 2.0 on a Debian system). In searching the net for promising software to do this, I found mdbtools. Mdbtools claims the ability to convert schemas and tables in MS Access to MySQL and other databases. http://mdbtools.sourceforge.net/ I'm wondering if anyone in the R community has tried using this software to use

This is very OT. If list readers can point me in the right direction, to other mailing lists, or web sites for recommended databases, that will be much appreciated! My wife's doctor wants to move records, for approximately 6000 patients (over a 12 year period), from paper (18th century) to a database (20th century). The data entry will be a PITA, for his secretaries, regardless of what

Hi everybody At work we''ve finally convinced the chief to develop some small project using open source technology. Unfortunately we are deeply involved with Micro$oft technology. That means, windows 2003 server, IIS, MS SQL 2005 and asp. I was thinking about recommending ruby on rails instead of asp, but I''d like to know how well it goes with IIS and MS SQL, because for the

I would like to access a Postgresql database directly from my dialplan (to lookup names based on callerid numbers for incoming calls). Based on everywhere I looked - it seems the only way to do this is with func_odbc. Considering that Asterisk seems to be able to access Postgresql databases directly using res_pgsql for the purposes of realtime functionality (without using odbc - if I
