Just following up to see if you have any suggestions to our multiuser issue
we are experiencing since upgrading to SAMBA 7 - SWAT8.

Subject: Problem with multi-user accessing Access DB

 

I am having a problem with accessing my Access DB and having multiple user
log in on the DB.  

 

We just upgraded our Linux file server to Slackware 10.  Previous to the
Slackware version we were operating on a different version of Linux and were
having no problems.  With the upgrade to Slackware we also put in a 200GB
harddrive that is RAIDed.  Since the upgrade we can access our Access DB but
only one user at a time.

 

We have SWAT's Samba web interface handling the conversion between Linux and
our Microsoft desktops.

 

I don't know if this has any bearing but looking at the Access DB through
Windows Explorer, the permission of the DB are Read Only and I can't seem to
change this setting.

 

Can you offer any solutions as to how we can establish our Access DB for
multi-users.

 

Thanks,

 

Matt
