Hi
In addition to printing problems, we seem to have problems with locking. We have a few shares that hold MS Access databases for PC client applications. We set these up using 'oplocks = no' and also tried 'strict locking = yes'. However, when loading the database on one PC, we got application errors saying that other users were using the system. We set 'oplocks = yes' and were able to run the applications. However, the users had application errors mid way through the day (corrupted database) and we had to restore from a safe copy. We spoke with the application provider, and they've sent us a file called 'oplock.knn' that they advised us to run on all Windows XP clients to stop this sort of corruption. The only thing is, they were unable to tell me what modifications it makes to the registry. Basically, I'd like to know what Samba settings to use (in the [global] and share parts) to have secure and corruption-free multi-user access to files and databases. Or is there no easy answer?
