Hello,
I just installed Samba 3.0.0 on RH9 and began testing the concurrent file access
behavior.
Leaving all locks/oplocks by default, there is no way of preventing a second MSWord
user from opening an already open file with no warning message (in a MS network the
message would normally be " ..test.doc is already open by ...Do you want to make a
copy?")!! No such thing with Samba, as the second user might waist hours on editing an
already open file just ending with no results!! Don't you think this is stupid?
How can you advert other users that a file is already open in such situations? I just
want to avoid confusion and make the transition from a Windows file server to Samba
transparent.
Thank you,
Cristian
