Dear list,
I personally think this is a non-issue, but I may be incorrect. If it is a
non issue I need to find a way to get some communication going on making it
evident to the devlopers of a software program.
I have strict locking = YES (which is by default set to NO) set
and I have been repeatedly told that there is a locking issue within SAMBA.
I don't believe this is the case as we are pushed towards a propriatary
client.
Basically it boils down to this...
1.) Samba has been stable...no/few issues
2.) Locking is set to strict...shouldn't have the issues that COMPANY X and
COMPANY Y had right?
3.)Why do I want to pay thousands of dollars because COMPANY X and COMPANY Y
couldn't figure out that locking should be set.
Now what I'm asking if:
A.) Is this locking issue is indeed resolved by me setting this lock?
B.) Even if that setting resolves said issue or not - what can I do to get
some communication open for testing so we don't have to purchase X product
because of a simple fix or setting change. I'd be more than happy to get
ahold of some developers at this place to get some kind of a dialog set up.
It _should_ be in their best intrest to get interoprability going with samba
as we aren't the only customer running it with thier products.
The following message is from a developer at the software company...
