We are having some problems in our company's test group that did not exist when our Clearcase 2003.06 server existed on a Solaris 8 machine. Now we are running on RHEL 5.2 with Clearcase 7.0.1.3 with Samba 3.0.28 (despite the fact that IBM has only blessed up to 3.0.24) and running into some file locking issues with some scripts our test group runs. I am hoping that someone might have some

I am trying to share an ACT 2000 database on a Samba shared network drive. Act does not currently support Samba shared networking but they do not see any reason why it should not work. Is anyone else out there using ACT in a multi-user environment over a Samba shared drive? If so what settings are you using for the "oplocks" and "level2 oplocks" for the share? Thanks, Paul.

hi, we using samba3.0.7 with a ldap(tls). it works fine. no problems with dns (reverse) lookups etc. all 20 xp clients can logon fast into the samba machine and access all shares. the problem since 3 weeks is, that after a while all shares freeze for 10-20 seconds in a user session and the user have to wait to continue. not all user at the time. the user get no response from explorer, the

My bet: your cluster filesystem device nummer differs across nodes. Cf: Bingo! Indeed inodes are (obviously) identical, but

Hello, I created the following samba share but for some reason samba is not locking the files open by other users. For example user dave open a file in the share and user slav does not get the notification that opened file is already being used by another user. I even added the locking options to the global but no luck. [share] comment = Main share path = /share guest ok = no writable = yes

Hello! I've got into problems with simultaneous access to files on samba server. Two (or more) people from different computers may open the same file and may independently change it (with openoffice, for example). Certainly, this is not the expected behavior. If the file is shared on windows machine, when the first user opens it, he gots RW permission, while the next one(s) may open this

Hi-- We are in a production environment with one WinXP box and several linux boxes. We have discovered that the WinXP and linux boxes seem to respect each other's file locks, but that the linux boxes do not respect each other's locks. In other words, box 1 can have a file open, and at the same time box 2 can open it and edit and save the file. We have smb.conf set with level2 oplocks

Hello, We seem to not be able to use Eclipse with a network drive since we upgraded our Samba server to version 4.4.3. Here's the error we get: mac-mini:MacOS user$ ./eclipse java.lang.RuntimeException: Error initializing storage. at org.eclipse.osgi.internal.framework.EquinoxContainer.<init>(EquinoxContainer.java:68) at

Guys, I am getting lock error box in Officer 2007 and windows 7. It shows the somebody is using this file, but I am sure that is not. That problem always happens when open 2 files in the same folder.

Hi all , I have several File Servers running linux and samba 2.2.2 and since i upgraded i have a strange problem. I have compiled samba 2.2.2 witch quota support. nothing else special. I use samba in Domain mode. The following problem occures: Some of the users can't read files or directoris in their home directories. The windows explorer gets an timeout or sometimes even crashes. I can

Hi there, I'm following your list for several months, as we run a CTDB cluster of Samba gateways over our distributed filesystem. I decided to post my first message to resume an old thread (https://lists.samba.org/archive/samba/2016-October/204043.html), hoping to progress and reach some conclusion. Essentially, we observe and can reproduce issues when attempting to lock a given file

this is the case: serverA [ CentOs 5.6 kernel 2.6.18-238.12.1.el5.centos.plus, Samba ver. 3.5.21 ] serverB [ CentOS 5.6 kernel 2.6.18-348.1.1.el5.centos.plus, Samba ver. 3.6.6-0.129.el5 ] clientA [ WindowsXP ] clientB [ WindowsXP ] The serverA shares via Samba the resource [test] [global] workgroup = DMIT netbios name = SAMBA server string = DMIT domain server interfaces = eth0

Hi, I have a Solaris 10 server exporting UFS directories using built-in NFS. I've built Samba 3.0.20b from OpenPKG (www.openpkg.org). I have a Solaris 10 (x86) client mounting the NFS share and opening OpenDocument files using StarOffice 8 (SO8, aka OO2.0). I also have a Windows 2003 Terminal Server mounting the Samba share and opening documents with SO8. This is a temporary development

I have a new Dell server running Red Hat 8.0 Linux. I just downloaded and installed Samba 2.2.7 from the Red Hat Web site. I am having trouble with Microsoft Access 2000 data base locking. The program runs in a runtime version (.mde)on each client. Only the database(.mdb), the permissions file(.mdw) and the lock file (.ldb) are resident on the server running Samba. Each computer can individually

Hi samba experts, We have a strange file locking problem and i hope someone can help. We use some CentOS 5 servers, which use samba 3.0.33, to share files of a java application to clients. Clients are mostly CentOS 5 (same version as the server), but there are a few legacy windows clients (the reason why we use samba and not nfs). And now the problem. When our developer uploads a new jar file to

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.

Hi List, I have a file server which runs samba-3.0.28a. My aim is to share a logical volume ( with XFS filesystem) using SAMBA, NFS and FTP. Since it is a file server I?m very much concerned about file locking. After googling and reading a lot I had set file locking flags in smb.conf ?lock directory = /var/lock/samba strict locking = no locking = yes level2 oplocks = no kernel oplocks

When i try to swap files between disks on my server using samba i get errors: then windows reports "The specified network name is no longer available". Sometimes the copies are fine other times files just wont copy. Hardware checks out fine. Ive even replaced the network cable between server and switch thinking that might be causing the problem. Ive included a ethereal cap of the

Hello all, Either the docs or the value in smb.conf.default is wrong. (Or at least confusing).
