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

Hi ! I have an unique situation. An SCO Unixware 7.1.3 with Samba 2.2.7a (yes, i know; it sucks !) On the machine, is running MS Foxpro 2.6 for UNIX (it's running pretty well for several years) but due to new demands (like Crystal Reports, Visual view; etc) the directories with DBF files were shared using Samba. At the beginning, when everything was only about reading, there were no

Hi all, Are there some specific parameters for running multi-user FoxPro 2.6 for dos applications directly from samba share? Zoran

I am failing to lock a database file on a unix server (Solaris486) when the file lock request is sent from Visual Foxpro on Windows 95. Any suggestions on testing procedures, or even a solution?? Please feel free to assume that I don't know anything about file locks! I don't even know how Visual Foxpro attempts to lock a file. Would the Foxpro lock be recognised by any application?

Hi, First of all, apologies if I'm not posting this in the correct place. I'm successfully running Microsoft Visual Foxpro 7 under Wine, however I needed to use the native versions of shlwapi and oleaut32. There is a major problem still, however, and that is that foxpro will freeze as soon as I use the mouse to click in certain controls (the command window, a textbox, an edit box,

Is Samba (1.19) incompatible with FoxPro? We have tried to network a database package (FoxPro is the underlying DBMS) by putting it in a Samba share. The database starts up and you can browse the tables, but it looks as though FoxPro's record locking system causes the entire share to be locked, so that further access to the shared drive (both in FoxPro and in the Windows98 Explorer) is

Ok, I'm sure you've answered this more then once, but still here it is : I have a FoxPro 2.0 for Lan application that used to run on DOS boxes connected to a Novell server (and of course with Novel client). Both FoxPro .exe, .prg and database/index files reside on the shared disk, and the client only maps a shared drive and starts the FoxPro application from there. Due to some

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

I'd like very much to be able to run "The Master Genealogist" under Wine. TMG is a MS Visual Foxpro application for genealogy database work. On my Kubuntu 6.10 system I have successfully downloaded and installed Wine 0.9.30, and then installed TMG ver. 6 including updates to 6.12, the current version. During TMG installation, there was a problem with a lack of

After making quite a few circles around one particular issue (and eventually resolving it) I have a suggestion to make: Append the following to http://www.openssh.org/faq.html#2.7 "NOTE: In order to agent forwarding to work you need to have xauth installed in the remote host. In Debian xauth is in 'xbase-clients' package." And about that "F" in

Hello, I've been working with a xBase database (similar to dBase) in a multiuser application. There are like 40 users working on the database on the same time reading and like 10 writing information. Sometimes the CDX files (Index Files) get corrupted and is it's necessary to pack the tables (rebuild the indexes). I have notice using the smbstatus -B command the following Pid

Hi, I have samba 2.0.7 (on Redhat 6.2) running as a print server for a Foxpro for DOS application. When printing from Foxpro (win98 client with DOS printing turned on), the print job does not reach the samba server print queue until the user shuts down the application. If I share the printer on a windows box, printing occurs immediately within the Foxpro application. Here are some of my settings

I've been trying to get Platypus (the ISP billing software by Boardtown) working under wine on-and-off for the past couple of months. Last time I checked, there were some Visual FoxPro problems. Those have now been resolved, but I get an 'insufficient memory' error as soon as Plat tries to contact the SQL database. Has anyone gotten it to work under wine yet? Anything I should

G'day I am trying to install Visual FoxPro 9 with wine. I have been following the instructions from "http://www.paulmcnett.com/vfp/wine/". I have had to slightly modify the paths used for the symlinks because the format of version 9 appears to differ from that of version 8. Or it's because they didn't lend me the original disks. Basically an extra directory level called

Are there any special quirks with Windows 10 and Samba... Using Visual Foxpro 9 on Windows 7 with the data and program files on a Samba file server. Will need to move to Windows 10 in a year so doing some testing. Everything works on one machine with 10 while on another it will not call the main.prg file on the Samba server. Trying to figure out if it is VFP9 issue or a quirk with Samba.
