It might help if you told us _what_ version of Autocad. And what version of SAMBA. Right now I have whole offices using cadd without corruption. I have one office that has some file locking problems, thats with 2000i with the civil plugins. It was easily resolved by, (this is just with the civil plugin btw.) level2 oplocks = no Make sure that CAD is configured for a multi-user environment.

[Samba] unable to get pushed drivers to work with hp plotters
Hello all! I am running a samba network remotely and am unable to get the driver version needed for cad applications to work It's for a hp750c. I can push the driver fine. And previous versions (the one that came with 2000 and 2.65) worked; but were unsatisfactory for CAD. The version that my cad users want is version 4.64 but for the life of me I can't get that version to work. The driver pushes, but then the user can not print to the device. Things that I have done; * deleted the contents of W32X86/2 and W32X86/3 and re-uploaded the driver (this works for the other printer just fine). * Created multiple printers/names with different versions of the driver. * deleted the contents of winnt\system32\spoll\drivers\2 and 3 on the workstation. * Installed and then deleted the driver pointing to the lpt port on the workstation. (thinking that it was a missing dll.) * Tried slightly different drivers EG the 750c+ and 755CM, in reality it's a c with the postscript module. * Looked at the oh so wonderful hp site for newer drivers to down load but of course they want me to order a CD. The system is a up-to-date debian sid box running Samba version 2.2.5-1. And has run perfectly, with the exception of this. Hints? Questions? Please ask. -- *--* Mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] *--* Voice: 425.739.4247 *--* Fax: 425.827.9577 *--* HTTP://www.otak-k.com/~lawrence/ -- - - - - - - O t a k i n c . - - - - - -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba
