The locks you see here are used by MS Office as semaphores. No one really knows why (well the MS Office programmers do, but they're not telling :-).
Thank s! That explains that. But I expected to see locks for the whole of the file for the duration of the MS-Word session. Why don't I see that? Without that, I don't see how Samba locks could play nicely with other Unix processes. Actually, being a Samba techo newbie, I sort of expected that those sort of locks would be dealt with internally to Samba, and smbd would lock the whole file anyway. Anyway to get that behaviour? (Thinks: probably not as Samba doesn't know why the file is being locked -- could be a word doco, could be a database I s'pose) -Matt -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba
