MDAC/jet-corrupt database

[Tony Nichols]

I've been using this:

   veto oplock files = /*.mdb/*.MDB/*.ldb/*.LDB
   dos filetimes = yes

This goes under the share ....... And has been working ok so far .... 
However I've seen many suggest exporting the tables to an SQL server
then linking them back in ...
That way the SQL server handles all the locking issues.

Generally Access Database problems are down to oplock problems, you
could 
try disabling oplocks on the samba server, or upgrading to the latest 
samba, which has fewer oplock problems.
