Re: [Samba] samba(-3.0.10) + Excel(2003), file locking issue?

2005-01-13 Thread David Landgren
  I open an excel file from a samba share, modify it, the *first* (and
  only first) time I save, Excel says:
 
  The file 'foo.xls' may have been changed by another user since you last
  saved it.  In that case, what do you want:
  O   Save a copy
  O   Overwrite changes
 
  Any ideas what's going on here?
 
  It's a known bug we've fixed in the Samba 3.0.11 pre-release.
 
 Thanks a bunch.  Now I can stop worrying that it was something I
 caused... *and* be comforted that a fix is on the way.

I asked the same question two days ago. I can confirm that the problem
is indeed resolved in .11pre1

[Samba] samba(-3.0.10) + Excel(2003), file locking issue?

2005-01-12 Thread Rex Dieter
Using samba-3.0.10(*) on RedHat Enterprise 3, and client WinXP boxes 
with Office 2003.  All servers and clients have synchronized clocks (ntp).

only first) time I save, Excel says:

(*) It happened with older version(s) too, but I thought I'd verify 
against the latest release
