I'm pretty sure that they're needed, since the clients don't actually run
the software from there, but they use the share to check for updates to
the AV files, and report back to the Administration station via the share
on any located viruses. Works really nice, when it works ;)
Maybe I'm misunderstanding the purpose of oplocks?!?!?
I've looked in my logs, and I see different machines with different OSs
(Win 95, 95B, 98, and 95 SR1+extra updates) still giving the
samba-log.tenison:[1998/12/18 10:37:33, 0] smbd/oplock.c:oplock_break(734)
samba-log.tenison: oplock_break: receive_smb timed out after 30 seconds.
samba-log.tenison: oplock_break failed for file COMM.INF (dev = 301,
inode = 620605).
Thanks!
