Hi all, I am experiencing something similar to what Andreas described on march 9th. Since upgrade to samba-4.12.0, users can sometimes have errors on accessing shares. Errors can be different, most often NT_STATUS_SHARING_VIOLATION, but also "Invalid handle". Just restarting smbd fixes the issue, for a while. The server serves six shares: one or a few may be locked, the other are

Friends, I have upgraded to 3.0.13 as I thought the random way in which only some printers are showing as offline on some win xp workstations, and refuse to come online, even if I use "Use Printer Online" in the properties and on the other hand on other winxp pro workstations all printers show the same behaviour, they are all offline.

Hello all! I discover a strange thing. We use and develop DOS financial accounting application, written on Xbase (formerly known as Clipper).

Am in testing phase with just a few lucky users to go live with samba. However, I just had a thought. What happens when we eventually do vista?

Please have a look and see what I may need to do to

Hi We've here some problems with Samba on a freeBSD-Server. FreeBSD 6.2-RELEASE Samba Version 3.0.25a The problem is about locking of open files.

Hello, something strange happens sometimes with a MS access Database when trying to open it on a samba share. The database is destroyed and I think the problem is Samba cause in the database file you can find some log entries from samba.
