I'm trying to copy files from a Windows system to a Linux system using
smbmount. Everything works fine until I hit a text file that is open
read/write on the Windows system, such as an SQL Server database file.
At that point, I get a Text file busy (26) error message, and the
copy process (rsync) skips the file. Is there any way around this,
short of stopping the SQL Server service and restarting it? I just
need to read an in-use copy of the file in question. Is smbmount
capable of opening a file in shared mode, or is this a limitation on
the Windows side of things?
