[Samba] Seeking help with Samba shares & OPLOCKS & Quickbooks databases

[Liz Ackerman]

I thought I had things figured out, but guess not.  I have multi-user
Quickbooks databases that functioned fine on a Novell server but are
behaving badly on a Samba share.  I have created a separate share for the
Quickbook databases, users are running Win XP Pro, latest patches, and the
Quickbooks application installed on the desktop.  It is a multiuser version.

Server is RedHat ES 3, Samba 3.0.14.  Here is the config for the Quickbooks
share:

[accting]
 comment = Accounting Volume
 path = /accting
 writeable = yes
 valid users = a list of valid users
 level2 oplocks = no
 veto oplock files = /*.*db/*.ldb/*.mde/*.xls/*.QB*/*.*/
 blocking locks = no
 locking = no
 strict locking = no
 share modes = no

The first user opens the database, and as soon as the second person attempts
to access the same database, the database is corrupting and crashing.

Does anyone else out there have a similar setup or experience that works and
can help me resolve my issue??

Much thanks!

Liz
