Hello
I have used a very basic share, and it seems that users can still connect concurrently without locking problems:


[Accounts]
   path = /data1/fileroot/Accounts
   read only = No

SuSE9.0 with Samba 3.0.3pre2 from rpm, security DOMAIN, w3k active directory joined.

This is all in smb.conf - the directory has acls to keep out prying eyes.
I tried to use valid users=accounts with hide unreadable=yes in [global] but other users could still see the share, so I have done it this way (also it is easier to manage for other windows-loving admins)
Not sure if it is a security risk to use acls instead, but it works!

I've put Line 50 onto a 3.0.4 build this week.

I used the following as a guide.

I would be interested if anyone else is using different settings.

I would also be interested on the install process followed as an accountant
came in and id this install, I had to follow and make it work.

regards

Alan

Just to let everyone know, we have deployed sage line 50 v10 using samba as the ACCDATA share, it is working without problems (I'm going to pretend I didn't say that) for 3 days now, with an average of 5 concurrent users, max 10.
SuSE 9.0
Samba 3.0.3pre2 from rpm
joined to w3k domain
no special entries in [global] or [share]

Hi Steve
Thanks for the help with that.
I think we are doing the same thing at the moment:

Mapped drive on client M:\
Sage installed on each client
ACCDATA shared from M:\{company} (at the moment hosted


on 2k server)


How many users do you have connected to this share? All i

am worried

about is locking of files etc. We have the possibility of around 10 simultaneous users although average will be closer to 3.

Thanks again.

I've been using sage instant this way for several years without
problem. Just the data files on the server & the program on the
host. You need to set up the company file in your sage directory to
point to the data files & I think you need to (I always


have done) set


up a shortcut on the windows machine to the samba source so your
company file points to say G:\(data-dir)

Gat back to me (probably off list) if you need any more info.
