------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Thu Oct 16 13:32:09 +0000 2008 ------- Hello, I was reading a lot of stuff on "how OOo locks file" when we use shared file system. Here's our situation: we have a fileserver with an sshd server; our users mount directories through SSHFS (which uses fuse). Then, one of them, say A, open a file, say Foo.odt. Permissions are : rw-srw-r (so that group can edit it without problem) Then, a second one, say B, decides to open Foo.odt too. And there's the big trouble : Foo.odt is NOT locked by A! -> so if B edits it, saves it, then A saves his own modifications, B's modifications aren't there anymore. As far as I read, OOo uses OS lock system, and knows how to use samba/webdav lock system too.... What I'm wondering is : why don't use a system like, say, vim? it "simply" puts a ".filename.swp" near the file we opened, and removes it when we close the file. In case we want to open this file twice, the second is read-only. Note: we want to use sshfs, as it's really faster than samba, and we don't have other OS than Linux/MacOS, which both know how to manage sshfs. Thanks in advance, this point is "the" point of failure in our system... --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
