------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Thu Feb 1 08:32:43 -0800 2007 ------- It is all true and a proposed attachment performs the described "Permission denied". But this has nothing in common with OpenOffice. Is a totaly Samba/CIFS issue. Increasing the debug level of the smbd(1) can give a lot of useful information about the behaviour which causes the problem of concurent access. In short, when someone has put a range lock, using posix symantics, through the cifs, samba can deny access to other read/write attempts. And that's what it does by default. Samba itself tries to resolv locking conflicts and denies access if it finds the conflict. To resolve the problem you can simply modify your smb.conf(5) by setting strict locking = no It is acceptable, as the smb.conf(5) tells us, and nothing breakes the usual behaviour. Setting this parameter to "no" has a good effect on us, and the locked file can be opened in read-only mode. That is the default behaviour of the OpenOffice. It opens locked file in read-only mode. In cases when we can't influence smb.conf(5) we simply can supply additional option to mount.cifs which disables byte range locks at all, though it is not recommended, like that: mount //127.0.0.1/samba /mnt/server -t cifs -o rw,username=myname,nobrl --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
