Clipper locking

I am facing problems while trying to run Clipper programs whose DBF files are 
on a Samba volume. I have tried a number of locking parameter combinations, 
but no one avoided index corruption. I guess two or more clients can get a 
lock and write over the same file region. Is there a way to make those apps 
work correctly on Samba volumes ?

I believe this question has been made a lot of times, but I didn't found an 
authoritative answer, neither by myself nor in Internet.
