I've a weird problem with Samba. I'm using Samba to share a filesystem between two linux systems because I believe I need byte range locking to prevent multiple processes on different computers from reading/writing the same ISAM records. I have a Debian wheezy file server running Samba; no domain controller, just a simple, single share. I have a debian wheezy KVM mounting a share via

Goldmine seems to a compiled database application compiled in something likeClipper. Clipper applications record lock through ISAM like files (DBF). However, in Windows NT/2000/XP, Opportunistic locking is turned on by default in order to accelerate file transfer from file services. [Windows 95/98 did not Opportunisticly lock] However, opportunistic locking corrupts ISAM and ISAM like

Hi! I'm manipulating XLSX data using RODBC, however a limitation which appears to be driver based is that you can't clear or drop sheets from the XLSX files, as per the following example: > library(RODBC) > xlsx<-odbcDriverConnect("DRIVER=Microsoft Excel Driver (*.xls, *.xlsx, *.xlsm, *.xlsb);DBQ=c:\\documents and settings\\desktop\\testxlsx.xlsx; ReadOnly=False") >

I think there was just a thread 'bout this, and I didn't pay attention... and then I walked into our smallest server room to rebuild a server with CentOS... and that's what it is. The problem I'm having is this: there are two 1T SAS drives, raided, via the controller. There's also a 750G SATA drive. The Dell test suite sees it, and reports that SMART says it's fine.

Hi All, Sorry if this has been answered many times. But i have been going through a lot of pages (via google search). The more i search, the more its confusing me. I have a server with 6 (750G each) SATA disks with H/W Raid 5. I plan to allocate the space as follows swap 8G /boot 100M / 20G -- and remaining space to /data{1,2,3,N} (equal sizes) However after the installation and reboot, i got

Hi, I have a question about samba3 internals. I want to know if samba does support what I call transactions (though I could be wrong) I need that a client either finish writing what it was meant to or not The problem is that I have a samba on a place where there is a very old accounting system writen in Cobol. Many instances of the program uses some kind of ISAM to access records in the samba

I am currently running rsync 2.5.6 on solaris 8. I am updating a rather large directory tree including some ISAM databases and am having some performance problems. We are using gigabit interfaces between two V280R servers and I am trying to push the tree with the following options. usr/local/bin/rsync --quiet --recursive --times --perms --links --delete-excluded

Recently (and for ages, I'm sure) folks have suffered partition destruction and had to try and recover. In the recent thread, the victim eventually had to resort to Google and fond some package that I can not remember now. Well, I was perusing my YumInfo.lst.05, for general info, and I discovered this (potential) little gem. Thought I would pass it on and make it "more googleable"

Hi people! I've been hunting around the web for an answer to this question for a couple of days now. I run the IT for a small company and i don't have a lot of experience with the type of C-ISAM database application that is used by my company, I deal with the general IT issues and call in specialists when required. But I need to backup this 10GB database to a disaster recovery

I have a heterogeneous network with a R.H. Linux server running Samba 3.0.5 and various Win clients (from Win 98 to Win XP Pro). On a Samba share I have an ISAM database (Access, FoxPro etc. like) that is being accessed by applications running on the Win clients and by applications running in Linux. I have disabled "opplocks" in both Win9x clients and on the Samba share. I have

Hey folks, I have a Sun J4400 SAS1 disk array with 24 x 1T drives in it connected to a Sunfire x2250 running 5.8 ( 64 bit ) I used 'arcconf' to create a big RAID60 out of (see below). But then I mount it and it is way too small This should be about 20TB : [root at solexa1 StorMan]# df -h /dev/sdb1 Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on /dev/sdb1 186G 60M

1. That was a part of a private email exchange. It has been suggested that more people may be interested. 2. I did use various databases (significant part of my job) for the last 15 years. Some with R for the last 3 years as a hobby. Some comments on the ones used below. Sorry, no links - I am time-constrained at the moment - please google if interested in details. The remarks are from the point

You were correct. The problem was with smbfs. But now I have aproblem I didn`t have before: if a file is open by the application in Linux I can not create new records thru the application in Win. I can modify existing records but I can not create new records. Any ideas Jos? Guimar?es [ pg@moose-software.com ] Director Moose Software http://www.moose-software.com -----Mensaje original-----

On a customer's machine running SuSE 9.2, the size of the occupied space on the harddisk is reported incorrectly by "df -h". After we noticed the problem, I rebooted the machine and had it checked by "e2fsck" (check forced with "tune2fs -C 40", we are not on location). Right after the reboot I proceeded as follows, but I could not find any information about
