Aside from playing with the oplocks, has this program been installed on
a network before, or in a manner similar but using drive letters beyond
C:\ and D:\ ? Because it would seem to me (thinking of an application
issue first) that since the program is unable to locate owndb.dll, it's
not necessarily able to search in that path for the dll...? Just a
thought, though...
