Now can a DOSEMU which runs on that samba server see that lock? Yes if I mount a samba share instead of opening file locally. Ok it is not the right thing to do. It should be able to open file locally and see windows locks, but if I could not make it work by the right way, I think it is a solution for now.
Opening file using mounted samba share, Windows can see dosemu locks and dosemu can see Windows locks. The problem is that the same application in dosemu is working different. I am using DBU (do you know it) to open the same file in dosemu and Windows ant this is what happens: 1. Open in dosem first When I open DBU in Windows it can see file is exclusive opened in dosemu and show only the name of dbf file, but do not show its fields and can not open it to see contents of file. That is expected to happen. 2. Open file in Windows first When I open DBU in dosemu it gives an error message: "File corruption detected" and abort. Ok, that means dosem can see file is already opened but the problem is the way it is dealing with it. DBU should work the same way as in Windows. > ...Now as you can > guess that would be quite a bit of work and I certainly will not be > doing this any time soon (though I would happily accept patches of > course). And I am not the one to make this patch :-(. I do not have knowledgement enough in C programming language for this. If you or our dosemu partners could only make DBU have the same behaviour in dosemu and Windows I will be happy. If it happens, that means I can finally send Windows to ....... Off topic: if my english is bad and is not making problems clear enough please tell me and I'll try to write better next time.
