The procedure for protection of MS Access databases under multi-user operation 
is documented in the Samba-3 By Example Appendix 8.1.

You can obtain this from Amazon.Com or from:
http://www.samba.org/samba/docs/Samba-Guide.pdf

If the information you find there is does not solve the problem please let me 
know so I can fix it.
