At an account running 3.0.14a Debian (same account as the dual log file issue posted earlier). A user sporadically cannot update an Access mdb file and gets access denied errors. The log: [2005/09/08 12:14:31, 2] smbd/open.c:open_file(245) ginny opened file database/EACM & ECC Reports Secure.ldb read=Yes write=Yes (numopen=4) [2005/09/08 12:14:36, 2] smbd/open.c:open_file(245) ginny

Hi... I've been running samba 3.0 for quite some time now (Debian's stable version, currently 3.0.14) and I've had no problems. That's probably been because all my clients were Windows XP boxes. I've now moved several users to Linux (Ubuntu Breezy) as their desktop and I've noticed there seems to be a problem in accessing files across the platforms. If a Linux box

Samba version 3.0.24-4 on a Fedora Core 5 box. I've been working solidly on this for the last 2 days but don't seem to be getting anywhere. Any and all help would be greatly appreciated.

Hello. I have a DOS application which works with database files. The problem is, that Samba doesn't "unlock" the files when DOS app finishes its work.

Hi, I have one NAS which I can access via NFS or Samba. This storage is accessed by 2 linux servers with Samba where I re-export the NAS share. This is sort of an active/active loadbalancing cluster. The only thing not working is locking... If a client opens a Word-File via server1 and another opens the same via server2 it won't inform the user that he can only open the file readonly. I was

I'm running a samba pdc on my gentoo box in a mixed environment with a couple of Windows XP clients and only a few MacOSX clients.

I first asked this question at the end of October, got a response which didn't solve the problem, and have finally got back to the issue now. I'm running 2.2.7a, recently upgraded from 2.2.0 as Domain Logons for Win2K were suspected to be part of my problem. Anyway, the issue relates to AutoCAD (actually a vertical product called Land3) and a command which works with winXX boxes, but

Every day, the Samba processes become so numerous that the server begins acting really flaky. That is to say, there are so many smbd -D processes that the server

Hello, I am trying to work out the file locking mechanism on our Samba server when connecting from Linux clients. I am getting some strange behaviour in a mixed Linux/Windows environment when multiple clients open/lock the same file for writing.
