[Samba] MS Access and Samba

[Oliver Krehan]

When the database is located on a Windows NT4-Server, the changes can be 
seen immediatly on the other 3 pcs. There is also a window popping up which 
announcing a sql-error but this seems to have no negative effect on the 
database. At a test-run under Win2k-Server the same error appears but also 
the changes can be seen immediatly.

So in general words spoken, is the database saved on a windows machine it 
works as it should, is it saved on samba share no changes can be seen until 
the pc the changes are made on closes the database.

Greetings

Oliver
