Has this changed in the 3.5.x branch? Well, it should work the same way (good or bad) it does against a Windows server. Once a second opener comes in, the oplocks should be broken anyway. If I remember correctly in the past I have seen hints by Microsoft how to turn oplocks off in Windows server for shares that host Access files, so this problem might not be samba-specific and/or fixed in recent Windows.

I can remember having to vastly increase the record-locking features of Netware 4, if you had users using Access dbs, especially multi-user. That was back around 2000 or so, so record-locking issues with Access dbs have been around for a really long time ... -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/options/samba |
