Hi,
I support around 15 Windows 2000 Clients who log into and have home
directories on a Samba PDC running under RedHat 7.3. The version of
samba I am using is 2.5.5. All the clients use Word97 SR2 and they all
get the following error while working on documents stored on their home
directories on the PDC:
Word failed reading from this file (filename.doc). Please restore the
network connection or replace the floppy disc and retry.
This error will simply pop up while the user is typing or if the
document is just left open for a while. If a user works on a document
stored on thier PC's local hard drive then the error will not occur.
The network is not dropping out at any stage. Is their a setting in
the smb.conf that might fix this problem and has anyone else come
accross this before? Please help.
Thanks in advance.
