similar to: Request for AutoCAD help with Samba server!

I am having problems with autocad file corruption. My users are draftsman and access project files via samba over the network. This problem occurs after a file has been worked on and someone attempts open a file that they were working on. There is no indication of a problem while the file is open and being worked on. But when they try to re-open it, autocad thinks the file is corrupt and it

AutoCAD 2000i runs fine under Wine when I start it from the command line. However, if I try to start it from Applications>Wine>Programs>AutoCAD2000i I get a frozen AutoCAD screen. I get the same result if I right click on the acad.exe file and select"Open with Wine Windows Program Loader". Any help as to where to start looking would be appreciated. Wine 1.0.1 Ubuntu 8.10

Samba List: Is anyone out there using AutoCAD R14 and Eagle Point? One of my clients received the latest version of Eagle Point, and the time to load files has become horrible. It has increased from 1 min to 15 min! All files are on the Linux server and the stations we did the initial tests with are PIII w/128MB RAM. The AutoCAD file loads quick, but once the Eagle Point files begin to load

Sorry for such a long post as my first to the list, but in an effort to forego a long back and forth question/answer session via email, I think if I post all the information that I currently have someone may be able to more quickly spot my issue. The server in question is a Gentoo server running Samba 3.0.11. The basic problem is that when person A opens an AutoCad file, person B is unable to

Hi! I was searching for info about this issue and found almost nothing. So, let's go directly to the matters... - Problem: AutoCAD says "You do not have permission to save to this location." when trying to save the file in the samba share dir. (This problem only occur with AutoCAD.) - Scenary: Running AutoCAD in a WinXP/Win7 PC, opening a DWG AutoCAD file from samba share dir in

Hi All, As per subject line looking for info. Have client looking to setup about 10 users running AutoCAD with all CAD files being stored and edited on local Linux/Samba server. Not much luck in finding anything of detail from numerous Google searches. File locking is of course an issue with multiple users. Client workstations running WinXP Pro and using a mix of AutoCAD versions 2000, 2003 and

Hi, I am facing a similar problem to what I faced sometime ago with Excel 11 when saving a modified xls file on a smb share: the application was saying the file is already used by another user (although this was not the case). The Excel problem was solved by adding a registry string somewhere in Excel registry key (documented in the Microsoft knowledge base). Now we are facing the same

Hello all, I' ve got a strange problem since I' ve installed the latest version of Samba. My configuration: Hardware- & Software-Configuration: Server-OS: AIX 4.3.0.0 Samba-Version: 2.0.5 Clients: WindowsNT Workstation 4.0 SP 5 and AutoCAD Version 14 Every Application I'm using is coping very fine with the new Samba-Version, but AutoCAD behaves a little strange! When I open a

Has anyone tested AutoCad 2000 with any recent wine ? Once upon a time I got Autocad R13 to work, only toolbars and screenrefresh was not working to 100%, then it broke completely, and 10 months ago when I tested with AutoCad 2000 it was still broken. Has anyone done any testing recently ? AutoCad and Quark express are two very important pieces of software for wine, since they both lack

Hello to everyone.. I have to use Autocad lt 2000 for work, but in my office I have windows7, that is incompatible with autocad 2000... then I tought to a very long but maybe good way: I will install virtualbox and, on the virtualized side I'll install ubuntu, that can run Autocad by Wine.. Can you explain how to install wine for autocad? Thank you!!

Hello, We've had serious performance problems loading AutoCAD R14 .dwg files from a VAResearch VArServer 3000 (dual 400MHz PII, Red Hat 5.0, SAMBA 1.9.17p4, 256MB RAM, 36GB RAID5). The problem is that on first access, trying to read the .dwg file is very, very slow -- a 10MB .dwg file loaded from an NT4.0sp3 server using a win95 station using AutoCAD R14 and SoftDesk AutoArchitect takes in

Hi, I'm managing a Samba server for almost 4 year now and I've got some glitch with AutoCad & Samba, but I've found many solution to solved those problems. Last week, I receive many complains about some users that experience problem using AutoCad. In fact, it's not AutoCad but Advance Steel Metal 2009 (plugin for AutoCad). In this new version of Advance, there is a new

AutoDesk now offers a free 15 day demo CD of AutoCad. I hope some of the talanted wine developers take the opportunity to get the CD and try to get it to work. http://usa.autodesk.com/adsk/item/0,,616392-123112,00.html In my opinion there are two windows application that are more important than others and that is AutoCad and Quark express. Linux does not have good alternatives to theese, and for

Hi ppl I need hel installing autocad 2011. I'm using wine 1.2.2 (ubuntu 10.10) I've copyed whole autocad DVD onto my HDD and started a setup with wine.

Hi folks, hi Tom I found the problem. Originally I did a 'chmod -R 1777 root:root /home'. This prevents users other than owner to delete files on the subdirs like my "condivisione" (see smb.inf below). Because the saving operation of autoCAD .dwg files involves several steps of create-rename-delete temporary file before save THE .dwg file, permissions "1777" avoid the

Hi ruelle, As Austin said, MText crash (point 1 of post you linked) is fixed in git. Point 2, aka the DIB engine, won't very probably never be accepted on wine
