Hello all, I have a samba 2.2.1a server running as the PDC of my network on a Mandrake 8.0 system with a reiserFS partition. I am serving for the win98 clients a small DOS clipper program with a DBF database. The programs run well on the workstations when there is only one user using it, when another user try to use the same program it starts to get very slow. I think this is a lock

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

Hi, could someone please give me the correct entries for using Foxpro with a samba share. I tried everything I can think of in the smb.conf but I am always confronted with locking problems and multiuser issues: Upgraded to version 2.2.5 smb.conf (among other things of course) oplocks=off lock spin count = 3 lock spin time = 25 locking=yes Is there anything you can tell me. It is very urgent and

I've been trying to get a program that uses Paradox databases over Samba shares set up for a company here and I'm smashing my head into a wall. This is a custom application written with Delphi/BDE accessing Paradox tables on a network share. Previously they used Netware and all was glorious until the box died, since they're version of Netware was bootlegged ages ago I decided to

Hi, Some years ago I developed a Delphi application for my private use and now I want it to run on Linux using wine. The application uses Paradox database engine. I tried to install the engine itself but failed. Eventually I installed the whole Delphi development environment with wine. It certainly installed BDE but I can not run even the dbd32.exe (database desktop). Machine: RH9 HW: HP

Hello list We have some Fox Pro apps shared on Samba server (I know FOX sucks) and sometimes we need to recreate indexes, and we have to call all the users and ask them to close their programs. If we kill the user's smb process we got corrupted indexes... here's the question : is there any way to force the used files by an smb user process to close avoiding corruption, or perhaps make

Hello, I'm wondering just how critical it really is to turn off oplocks. It appears that not only Windows 2k server, but also Netware 5 and above defaults to having these enabled. I just spoke with two software companies running databases off of file servers (no database server, just MDAC stuff), and they had never heard of it, much less require it to be disabled. Everything I've

Hello! We have application written in Borland Delphi, with BDE 5 (unfortunately, I have no sources :-( ) It creates mdx files on samba share. All is OK with w2k or win98, but with Win ME programs says that file is busy, when it tries to create mdx (index ) file. If it says that file is busy it is impossible to create this file from another machine with w2k or win98- program says that file

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

Hello for all ! We use a samba server 2.2.1a with conectiva 7 [ kernel 2.4.18] and have the most important system of enterprise in clipper. In begin we have many problems with index corruption and clipper system freezes Then we turned off oplocks and level2oplocks and found peace. But sometimes the system until freeze in one station and this freeze others stations too. When clipper system is

Anyone on the list using a Paradox database on a Samba server? I'm after any performance tweaks which might speed up accessing data in a particular application (Q-Pulse, just in case anyone's heard of it). Any smb.conf tweaks in general which have made a proven speed improvement would be welcomed. TIA Jon.

Hi to all. I have a problem to connect to an Excel database using RODBC. Namely, I am using 64-bit R 2.14.0, under Windows 7 and I tried following: library(RODBC) > channel <- odbcConnectExcel("results.xlsx") Error in odbcConnectExcel("results.xlsx") : odbcConnectExcel is only usable with 32-bit Windows # ok this is clear why it doesn't work > channel

Hi, I have an app with Delphi7 + MSSQL, developed during 10 years. Now, the users have asked me about some way to run this app into Linux Fedora Core 2/3. I use Fedora for apps in Java with no problems, but I never heard about Delphi run. I look at WineHQ site about this combination of Delphi + MSSQL but I didn't find. I found some thing about Delphi 7 install and slow behaviour in

Hi fans, i tryed to use samba to share a paradox database which comes with a special trade programs. On a novell server it works fine. But on the samba share I get a corrupted database after some minutes of multi user access. I've tryed some entries in the smb.conf and I think a have a very conservative setting now. I heared of somebody who uses samba successfully with the same application

Hi! I was able to install my good old Paradox 5, a 16-bit application. But when I start it, it crashes after some (correct) Dialogboxes with that trace: > wine 'C:\Programme\PDOXWIN\PDOXWIN.EXE' wine: Unhandled page fault on read access to 0xffffffff at address 0x11f7:0x00000f02 (thread 0018), starting debugger... Unhandled exception: page fault on read access to 0xffffffff in 16-bit

Hi all... Last monday i migrated form novell 4.0 to Samba 3.0 PDC. The server acts as a file server for 30 workstations (Win2000) using an aplicattion that combines clipper (with .dbf files) and delphi (uses paradox .px and .db). Its perfomance has been very poor since i changed the server. PLEASE HELP ME, since its in production and i really don know what to do. thanks, sebastian davancens

Hello list, i have problems using paradox tables (Paradox Level 5) via BDE (4.01 and 3.02) on my linux server, but their performance is very slow. At current, i'm using Samba 1.9.17p2 (and yes, i know this is not the current version, upgrad is planned). The configuration is very passive (locking for multiuser access to tables, direct write to disk). Does anybody have a suggestion on how

Hi in! I need to know how to tell samba not to cache files. Thanks for your help! [BTF]KaZeR http://kazer.homeip.net

Does anyone know how to do this, I've copied both DD/Arma and Ricky to a directory in my home folder, and try to run it with a command: wine '/home/myaccount/.wine_c/program files/paradox/doomsday/doomsday.exe' But i just get errors saying things like "Can't find country.csv" etc. I had installed both games on my windows machine, and simply copied the install
