Hi, just tried this on your suggestion, I get the same results.

I went back to fake oplocks = yes in the sahre
and now I get


The Microsoft Jet database engine cannot open the file ". It is already
opened exclusively by another user, or you need permission to view its
data.


Other MS Access DB's in the same directory produce the same result.


This is a 2.1 prealpha Samba, and I am only having issue when opening
the MS Access files from NT Workstation 4.0 SP3 systems - win95/98 it
works fine.

Thanks
-Todd
