similar to: Two MS Access questions (compact database & Access XP)

I'm trying my darnedest to set up a samba server to share some directories for certain user groups. Several of the shares will be housing databases (incl. MS Access) which will be accessed by several users, often at the same time, and thus need to deal with both file-locking and group ownership. I have read that I need essentially the following in my smb.conf file: [lab] path =

Hi Regularily, I will 'lose' a Word document window. It happens when both single and multiple documents are opened. I will first explain the 2 document case. If I open 2 documents, I can see this fact by looking at the 'window' menu; there, it will say that there are 2 documents open. I can see one document, on screen, but when I try to activate the document that is not seen,

I am unable to get roaming profiles to work correctly when using a Samba 3.0.1 server with Windows 2000 and XP Pro clients. The MS Windows clients will only load the default profile but will stubbornly refuse to load their profile from the Samba server, even though when the user logs off, their profile is correctly written to /home/samba/profiles/username. I have even tried the following

Dear all, I hope you will forgive me for posting without lurking, and indeed, without even being subscribed to the list. Let me first say that efforts such as Ogg shows there is still a lot of good in mankind, this is truly a great effort! While I haven't been lurking, I've been looking through the archives to see if this stuff has been discussed before, and I have also tried to read

Rahul, I just start experiencing the exact same problems on one of my RedHat 7.3 servers. So far it has been about once a week. The first time this happened, I was lucky enough to get an error in the error log, and it turned out to be from an old kernel bug (kernel BUG at journal.c:406!) I upgraded from 2.4.18-3smp to 2.4.18-27.7.xsmp, but the problem came back, this time with no errors in the

Hi, I think I have discovered a bug in FreeBSD 4.8-STABLE's system C++ compiler: % gcc -v % Using builtin specs. % gcc version 2.95.4 20020320 [FreeBSD] Here is a stripped down example that can be used to reproduce the bug: // ----------- begin bug.cpp ----------- #include <iostream> class Class { public: void M1 (void) { cout << "M1" << endl; }; void M2

Hi, Can someone give me some pointer or links to understand how Filelocking and rquotad works on NFS ? I searched a lot on google , didn't get any good articles on that. -- Regards Basil

Hello, I converted one of my servers to ext3 and load average numbers went up. Now they are ~2-3 while on ext2 LA was <0.4. And I'm constantly seeing processes and kjournald in D state. vmstat confirms that. But even in such LA CPUs are ~99% idle. What can be wrong? RedHat 7.1 kernel 2.4.18-18.7.xsmp. SCSI cards: Compaq RAID array controller (cciss) and Q Logic ISP1020 (isp_mod).

Using imapsync I changed many ACLs on many accounts simultaneously in four concurrent IMAP-sessions. I started with an empty file "shared-mailboxes". But after the sync the file "shared-mailboxes" has been crashed. I found broken lines and I'm missing some entrys. Is it possible that there's no filelocking on that file? I used the ext3 filesystem. That's

Hi there, is it possible and when, how - to change the filelocking-status of an opened file from EXCLUSIVE+BATCH to another status ? We have to open an file to write at the same time from different pc's into this file. For example the following smbstatus -u USER output: Pid DenyMode Access R/W Oplock Name DENY_DOS 0x1 RDONLY EXCLUSIVE+BATCH

Hi, some big files are regularily updated on server A. Rsync should sync that with Server B. If rsync starts in the middle of an upload process, will it copy that incomplete file to Server B? First tests showed it will. How can this be avoided? Comments on rsync-usage with big files and very active users would be very appreciated! Thanks! Peter

I'm using RedHat 7.2 with kernel 2.4.18-26.7.xsmp and root mount using ext3. And I have simple test.pl script: #!/usr/local/bin/perl open FILE, ">testfile"; while(1){ print FILE "Test.\n" or die $!; } It's died when the file size is 2147483647 and give error message: "File size limit exceeded" and I run "cat testfile testfile >>

During my tests I''m starting to feel stupid :). Traffic shaping works quite on its own. System: RedHat 7.3, RedHat kernel 2.4.18-18.7.xsmp, HTB version 3.6, interfaces eth0 and eth1 are acting as bridge br0. If TCP shaping almost works, it just exceeds limits UDP is not shaped. Traffic flows PC=>eth0=>eth1=>PC. Statistics shown is for just UDP traffic (1mbit of small udp

I'm trying to figure out what this error means. I've looked all over the groups and though there are people with the same errors, no one seems to know what the error is. I'm running Samba 3.0.2 with OpenLDAP 2.0.27. It might be related to Kerberos or to SSL. I've looked through my NMBD and SMBD logs and found very little as to what the problem could be. I've tried various

I'm trying to store mailboxes in a cloudfile system and I am running into alot of problems using courier, between time skew, file locking and cache creation problems. I was wondering if dovecot has any problems using maildirs across a limited fuse file system. I cant lock files, This is accessed using the fuse library. I thought taking out the standard checking for return values would be a
