Hi Alan: I'm not the only that have this problems, and we don't use win7 as servers, I'm talking about a big infrastructure of 100's of virtual servers with windows 2003, 2008 and 2012, and thousands of PC's (virtual and phisical ) with users grouped up 50 concurrent in various Citrix servers.
Over the web there are many reporting problems with network acceses to files like vfp and other apps. The hotfix you mention does resolve all this problems with smb2/3? Because configuring smb1 is not an option on our networks, and I'm not admin There are some whitepapers explaining the problem with oplocks El 07/05/2015 09:53, "Alan Bourke" <[email protected]> escribió: > > If you are going to use network shares for the tables, just be care with > > the combination of client OS and server OS, because any combination > > starting with Win7->Win7 or higher, will cause corruption problems. > > Sorry but that's just not true in the general case.
