Hello!

I sent this message to samba-technical yesterday but as I saw no response
(not even a RTFM ;), I'm crossposting.

I just need some help to track down this bug. I can write a patch if I can
find the guilt...

hello!

I'm facing a weird problem. When a clipper application opens a dbf file as
READONLY, its DenyMode will be DENY_ALL. If I open the same file as SHARE,
everything works ok.

I saw this under samba-2.2.1a + some patches. The code in 2.2.2 seems to be
almost the same, at least in source/smbd/open.c. O, I've removed oplocks
for .exe, .dbf, .ndx and related files.

The smbstatus output of a READONLY open:

Locked files:
Pid    DenyMode   R/W        Oplock           Name
--------------------------------------------------
1082   DENY_WRITE RDONLY     NONE            /home/samba/sistema/TESTE1.EXE   Wed Nov 28 14:23:15 2001
1082   DENY_ALL   RDONLY     NONE            /home/samba/sistema/extrato.dbf  Wed Nov 28 14:23:15 2001

The smbstatus output of a SHARE open:

Locked files:
Pid    DenyMode   R/W        Oplock           Name
--------------------------------------------------
1082   DENY_WRITE RDONLY     NONE             /home/samba/sistema/TESTE.EXE   Wed Nov 28 14:22:39 2001
1082   DENY_NONE  RDWR       NONE             /home/samba/sistema/extrato.dbf Wed Nov 28 14:22:39 2001

I'm trying'to track this bug down (if it is a bug and not a *feature*) and
can't see what's wrong.

					Thanks in advance,

								Luis
