Hello all, We are experiencing problems using MYOB Premier V6.0.2 on Windows 2000 computers SP3, with the data file residing on shared drive on Linux (Redhat 7.2) file server running Samba Version 2.2.1a and kernel 2.4.9-34. The MYOB Tech support have told me that it is a problem with our network but could not give me any hints where the problem might be. The MYOB database has been corrupted

Several months ago, I installed MYOB and everything seemed to be working. Using F8 kde. Now I'm getting similar results as the above complaints. I think this may have happened after the updater installed updates. Various tabs don't work in the MYOB and it's printing blank pages for receipts and invoices. Other printing from Myob seems to be ok. Using HP network printer and cups.

I had forgotten to mention... really sorry, but could be a major clue. F6 had a printing issue with MYOB and so did the first several releases of F8. I didn't close out our XP system until I had MYOB fully functional with F8 and that was FEB/MAR time frame. One of the updates around end of Feb. started it (MYOB) working for us. Then I killed the last M$ system we had.

It's whatever was current release during March. I have no way of doing regression tests, nor determining which broke what. IMHO the kernel is a suspect too, and March was a lot of upgrades ago for F8. The target system (F8KDE) gets used for MYOB about once a week and printing invoices about once a month, it took awhile before we discovered the system was really broken, we had initially

I am experiencing a performance issue with MYOB accounting package being served from a Debian 2.4.18 based server running samba. Clients are Win2K/WinXP clients in a small workgroup environment, all maping drive to samba 'data' share. Network is pure TCP/IP, no other (MS or Samba) servers on LAN. I've experimented with Oplocks and veto oplocks but to no result the performance of

Hi all, After Googling around a while, I've found bits and pieces of my puzzle, but never someone who's got the whole thing. Here's what I'm trying: - Run MS Access 97 and MYOB - Under FreeBSD 5.3 - With multiple simultaneous users (X Terminals) Access 97 and MYOB are the only Windows programs we'll need to run, everything else will be done with "native"

First a short background of the situation, My work ran a MYOB file from a MS 2000 server. They were getting problems such as the, "cannot send messages to so-and-so. blah blah blah..." They were planning to upgrade to MS 2003 in an attempt to eradicate all error messages and remove the lag sometimes experienced when opening a large list. Since i am a linux fan i suggested giving

G'day all, I'm getting closer to realising my dream of running MYOB (an Australian accounting package - used by 2 in 5 Aust small business) under WINE. On startup, as the different pull-down menus begin to manifest, I get the following message appear on screen: (from MYOB) "FALT is needs that bit cleared" with an OK box. I must say, I absolutely *love* the grammar in the

Over the last month I think two wine updates came in. I don't know if it was a core update or if they were other component updates. I know on the Fedora, there seems to be major updates every few days. I don't know which broke what. All I know for sure is that MYOB was working and now we can't use it. We have invoices to post and mail and can't.

Does anybody know what is happening with Netraverse the company who makes Win4Lin? They appear to have closed down, their offices are shut down and phones disconnected. Their internal user newsgroup is saying most of their developers have been fired. Their Web site (www.netraverse.com) looks like business for ususal. I wonder what happens if you try to buy anything from them - I'll let

I am trying to get a Windows application called "MYOB" (Mind Your Own Business - an Australian business accounting program) working with wine. It almost works.. selecting the sample company works good with all the functions, but when trying to selecting a particular data file it fails with the following: err:win32:fixup_imports No implementation for shlwapi.dll.0(StrRetToBufA) imported

Nic, Have you read the chapter in file and record locking in the Samba-HOWTO-Collection? http://www.samba.org/samba/docs/Samba-HOWTO-Collection.pdf You need to disable oplock support on the share. oplocks = False level2 oplocks = False Chapter 14 of the HOWTO also documents Windows registry settings you may have to set in order to protect the MYOB files. Above all, make certain that your

Hi All, We have just moved a client from winblows 2000 to samba server and they are having some teething problems with MYOB Premier version 7.5 and speed of access. They swear and declare that exaclty the same server box is slower running samba 3.0.3 (fedora core 2) than winblows 2000 server file sharing. It's definintly just samba because everything else is running sweet (with the

Hi list, i'm have trouble with MYOB. I'm running samba at debian squeeze and share myob file. If one user access file, it is ok but rouble when multi user access file, myob suddenly terminate and having error like this : *Unable to open lock file ; access privileges may be incorrect or disk may be full * It is my smb.conf : [global] log file = /var/log/samba/log.%m passwd

Hi all I have a problem since installing MYOB(14.1) on wine on a gentoo AMD-64 box using kernel 2.6.20-gentoo-r7. I have Wine 1.0-rc1 installed into a 32-bit chroot. MYOB runs acceptably, the only problem being selecting items in sub-menus, which cannot be done at this stage. I can get around this by removing everything from the "Forms" folder except my customised invoice form.

Hi, We have Samba 2.2.8 on RedHat 9.0 (from rpm). We connect about 5 Win XP Professional PC's (with Service Pack 1) to the server. Roaming profiles are set up. After about 30 minutes client connections are lost to the server and the users cannot reconnect to the server, even if samba is restarted. A reboot of the server is required. This occurs, it seems at this stage, when large

Anybody get win4lin 5.0 running on CentOs? I have a Ibm Thinkpad 600 running centos 3.3. I tried running the win4lin installer which downloaded a supported kernel and installed but when I went to reboot the laptop, the drivers for my wireless card were missing along with usb support. Then when the laptop went into run level 5 nothing happens. Then the x server throughs an error about a bad config.

Has anyone been able to make the Quickbooks Delivery Agent work under Win4Lin? I find that it slows the system down to a crawl and it never completes it's task. Removing the Delivery Agent is not a great solution because Quickbooks won't perform certain functions, like writing a paycheck, without it. Has anyone tried Quickbooks Pro 2001 under Win4Lin? does it work any better? Thanks,
