[Samba] access database locking issue

[Jack Malone]

Hello. after getting suse 9.0 loaded on a new machine here an configuring 
samba 2.28 that came on the cd's I'm having a locking problem with some 
access database files. I had this same problem when i first went to linux 2 
years go an started storing some access database files on the server. It 
seems only one person  (an sometimes 2 i'm told by the users) can have the 
file open at a time. we use it for keeping up with our traffice log here of 
incoming an outgoing shippments. it was working fine on the old server but 
now that it crashed on me I had to setup a temp machine til i get some new 
parts in for the old one.

i will post my samba conf file in this email for someone to look at an 
point me in the direction i'm going wrong. thanks for the info / help.
