[Samba] I need make an consult on Samba locking.

[Juan Cruz Osellame]

Hi  to all

I need make an consult on Samba locking.
I hope that it can help me

I'm working with:
        Linux SuSe 10.0 server with Samba 3.0.20-4-SUSE installed.
        One Windows XP client with FoxPro installed.
        Four Linux clients with DOSEmu and FoxPro 2.5 installed.

On the Samba Server I have an shared directory with access databases.


The problem:

I open one free table in foxpro on Windows and I lock one registry. 
( rlock() )
I open the same free table in foxpro 2.5 on DOSEmu in the Linux client and I 
attempt to modify the lock register. Linux let me to modify the lock register 
and not report me the lock status.

The samba client for linux don't work with lock's?

The problem is the local file cache for clients?

I make diferet tests... but, not successful.

I send attached my samba config file.

I try with a excel file but it does not lock either.

I wait for answer

Thank very much
