[Samba] Issue with Samba and Microsoft Word

My bad! :)

Clients are all Win2K, SP2
All have Office 2000, no SP, or SP1
The workgroup templates are located on the "Common files" share, in a
directory called "Admin/forms/quantec templates"

Sorry! :/

Michael,

There are some missing details:

Client Platform (Win95?)
Client Patchlevel (SP1?)
Word Version (6.0?)
Word Patchlevel (SP2?)
Which share the "Workgroup Templates"
   are located on ("Common Files"?)

Many things _could_ be assumed,
but it always better not to.

Good luck,

Troy

Hello, all

I was wondering if anyone else has seen this:

I'll arrive in the morning, start Microsoft Word. It takes 30-45
seconds to
open.
I'll hit the File menu item - takes about 30 secnods to open.

If I close Word and open it back up, it all works fine (i.e., no
delays).
If I close Word and come back to it in half an hour or so, it all
starts
over.

I think I've posted this here before, but I don't remember. My
apologies if
I did. I'm still trying to find an answer, and if I can't, we'll most
likely
be switching from Samba to Win2K server.

Word is configured so that the everything in the Options|File Locations
is
on the C: drive except for the Workgroup templates, which is out on
the
server.

My smb.conf is below.

Many many many thanks in advance.
