wine users - Jul 2009 - Debian File Server Hangs When Accessed by a Wined Client

Debian file server hangs or freezes every time a visual foxpro (vfp) built exe
file located or stored in it is executed from within a local area network
consisting of windows (XP) and linux (debian) boxes.  If only windows boxes are
utilized to access the vfp program, server never fails; but when a linux box
joins in and runs the vfp through wine, server hangs or freezes within 1 to 2
hours.

How does it access the files?

The file or the program in the server is multi-user capable, an Inventory System
for instance.  Accessing is accomplished via file sharing across the network
with a debian-based domain server.

So, windows file sharing via samba?

Server = Debian Etch & A Half - 2.6.24
Clients = Debian Etch & A Half and Puppy and Windows XP
Program located in server = Inventory application built using VFP 9 in .exe
format.

Again, no problem if clients are all XP and simultaneously accessing one and
same program in Debian server, but once a linux client joins (be it debian or
puppy distro) and accesses the same winapp program via wine, the server would
hang after about an hour, and all client connections (including XP) would be
lost.

If the linux clients join the combo network, but don't access the same
winapp, the server will be alright.

Yes samba...wine version is usually whats included with the distro.
