Were using a Netgear Networked Attached Storage server which uses Linux as its operating system. Has worked out REMARKABLY well although isn't as fast as a full-blown server. I've not had problems with locked records up til now.
I think I know why it's crashing, but it still shouldn't maintain a lock once its shut down. Perhaps the executable is not fully closing and remains in the task list. i'll check that. ----- Original Message ----- From: Alan Bourke <alanpbou...@fastmail.fm> To: profox@leafe.com Cc: Sent: Tuesday, December 6, 2011 2:08 AM Subject: Re: VFP 9.0 holding onto lock after program crashes I know what' going on ... It's crashing. Aside from that in general you need SP1 on the Win 7 machines and Server 2008 too if the data is on that. I find there is no need to touch OpLocks theese days, in fact there's no point if SMB2 is in use as it would be with the OSes above.
