Hi everyone:
I posted this a couple of weeks ago and got no response. My client is
still stuck with this issue and I am quickly running out of ideas to try.
Does anyone have any ideas/suggestions? This is a long-term customer
and so far their server has provided outstanding service - until now.
I have a client with an older server that is running into a weird file
locking problem.
The server is running FC2, samba 3.0.7 and kernel 2.6.10.
Both your Linux installation and your Samba server is way outdated, I
strongly recommend you get them upgraded. A lot of bugfixes to Samba
have come and gone since 3.0.7, and it's been a long time since the last
patch to FC2.
This could well be your problem.
They have recently installed AutoDesk Revit, which is apparently some
sort of collaborative design software. Revit keeps a central repository
and then allows different clients to access it.
What is happening is that only the person who created the file has
read/write access to it - even after s/he closes the file.
Here's a log from the workstation that creates the file. From what I
understand, the user 'johan' created the file and then tested read/write
ability.
My apologies for starting simple. You say the file is on the Data
share, where files are created 771.
1. Does 'ls -l Martini-central.rvt' on the linux side show what it should?
2. Are users johan and kevin both members of the same group, as they
need to be if they are trying to share a file with 771?
