Hello,

I'm trying to get away from M$ from my company, but it's quite hard,
because we need to run a Clipper software with multiple users acessing
the same database file (.dbf).
   I have some problems with that:

1) After running the software and accessing DBF from MS-DOS, when
exiting (exitemu) I get:

C:\ESMERALD>exitemuERROR: lowmem_alloc failed for 10240
ERROR: Unable to allocate memory pool

   This used to work with 1.1.4. Running with Freedos works all right.

2) Trying to open the same DBF from withing 2 different dosemu I got
this error:
 .----------------------------------------------------¬
 | Error DBFNTX/1001  Open error: \ESMERALD\P0070.DBF |
 |                    (DOS Error 5)                   |
 |                                                    |
 |              Quit    Retry    Default              |
 `----------------------------------------------------'

Error DBFNTX/1001  Open error: \ESMERALD\P0070.DBF (DOS Error 5)
Called from LOCKERRHAN(0)
Called from (b)INITHANDL$(0)
Called from DBUSEAREA(0)
Called from NET_USE(63)
Called from ML213(50)
Called from E_GAB3(77)
Called from GAB3(608)


The file is local (not {smb,nfs,...} mounted) at a ReiserFS partition
(if that matters).

The right thing would be to both dosemu open the files, because Clipper
does some kind of record locking.
   How to solve this? I hope you can help me solving this... I want to
run everything on one machine, just exporting the display and avoiding
problems.


PS: lsof | grep dosemu is at http://gsbarbieri.sytes.net/dosemu.lsof
