From what I've read on the list, there does not appear to be POSIX ACL support for rsync at this time, is this true? There does however appear to be a patch floating around out there, where can I find this patch. TIA -Justin -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...

I have spent much of the day today researching performance tuning with samba. I have tried everything that I can find out about how to make performance faster. I checked disk performance with Bonnie, installed FTP and tested a transfer that way, achieving 6-7 MB / second. about 30 seconds for 150 MB file. I was finally able to achieve those speeds on a file transfer to the server through

This is set up with Win2K boxes sharing a QB file on a SAMBA share. It may be quite different than with 95-98x-ME(Miserable Edition). There are two or more problems - one thing I identified is that it is possible for two computers to connect to the QB(QuickBooks) share using the same quick books logon - something that will cause data corruption. (Something that could have been easily

I thought I had things figured out, but guess not. I have multi-user Quickbooks databases that functioned fine on a Novell server but are behaving badly on a Samba share. I have created a separate share for the Quickbook databases, users are running Win XP Pro, latest patches, and the Quickbooks application installed on the desktop. It is a multiuser version. Server is RedHat ES 3, Samba

It is widely known that Quickbooks has a horrible storage engine, "requires" Windows to host multiuser access, etc. However, I've successfully been storing QuickBooks files on Samba shares at a handful of locations with no real issues other than slight performance degradation. However, a somewhat recent thread here mentioned the proper use of oplock'ing in the Samba configuration

I have a directory shared out via Samba for Quickbooks and seem to have some issues with permissions. The directory being shared is a subdirectory in an ext3 partition being mounted with the acl option. It has been setup as follows: chown root:DOMAIN\AD_Group /mnt/Intuit_Data/ chmod 2770 /mnt/Intuit_Data/ And the Samba share config is has: create mask = 0660 directory mask =

I updated samba to samba-2.0.7-4 (RedHat RPM). That didn't help. I changed the file ownership to user.group from user.user. That didn't help. I changed the file permissions to -rwxrwxr-- as you had suggested, and then it worked. (QuickBooks 99 needs *both* the file permissions set as noted *and* the ownership also.) However, when everyone closes QuickBooks the QBI file is deleted, and

Hello, I try to enable files locking with samba, but I didn't succeed in. I've red samba official howtos but I'm not sure I've understood everything. (Samba 3.0.14a as aPDC, ext3 with acls, debian) I've tried : enable privileges = yes nt acl support = yes acl compatibility = auto security = user passdb backend = tdbsam lock directory =

Debian and Samba Teams: I'm having a really weird problem with Samba 3.0Beta2+RC4 on my Debian Sarge (testing) system with Quickbooks Pro 2002 multi-user version. The version of my question is: Does anybody know what the proper global, share, and permissions settings should be to support multi-user Quickbooks on a Samba share? The Long Version: The Quickbooks data-file resides on it's

Hi there, Can somebody please explain to me why Samba 3 requires 'oplocks = no' on shares for programs like Quickbooks to operate properly with multiple users, where Samba 2 didn't? Without this option, Quickbooks will complain about file corruption when a second user tries to open a file. This option, however, makes the particular share that the option is present in _very_ slow

Hi everyone I'm looking for a bit of help I'm fairly new to Linux and completely new to Wine, but I installed Wine on Linux Mint 12 and then installed quickbooks 2003, Quickbooks runs ok but when I exit I get a message "Quickbooks has encountered an error" (Can't remember the rest) after that Quckbooks will not load again until I restart Linux I don't get any error

Hi all; the other day we tried to get ambitious and get the office onto a samba domain. Things were fine, but our quickbooks users could not use quickbooks because they were domain restricted users and needed to be domain standard users. Anyone have any help on how to get the users in question to be power users? Mike hillyer

I am trying to convince my father to run his business on Linux, but all his accounting is done under Intuit's Quickbooks. Does anyone have any experience of running the aforesaid?

I moved a Quickbooks Pro file to our Samba server (v 2.0.7) during an effort to centralize some stuff in our organization. Before moving the file to the samba server it was shared from a users NT Workstation. I don't consider this a viable long term solution. Anyway ... here it goes with my problem report .... :-) So I moved the Quickbooks file to the Samba server, setup an Accounting share

I've installed Quickbooks 2006/07 with the following commands under Ubuntu 8.10 with Wine 1.1.4 1. Install IE 6 sudo apt-get install wine cabextract binfmt-support $ wget http://www.kegel.com/wine/winetricks $ winetricks ie6 vcrun6 fakeie6 2. Install Quickbooks 06/07 by loading the CD and typing wine Setup.exe in the appropriate directory.

Using Ubuntu 8.04, Wine 1.1.3 Application is Quickbooks 8.1. I have succesfully run this app in 7.04 with older wine version. I'm finding that the menu's with arrow up & down seem to crash Quickbooks and wine. Not using the arrows but when you go all the way to the top or bottom. A restart is then needed to get Quickbooks to open up again. Any ideas? As I say this worked great
