[Samba] Strange Data Problems with legacy dbf tables.
I sent the following to the Opensuse Forum, but I might find better expertise directly with Samba with no intent to duplicate the request. Since upgrading to 11.3 I have noticed a number of strange problems accessing or manipulating Foxpro DOS tables. This is of course a Samba Issue. I see a lot of issues with 11.3, I can't even operate an ssh login to run yast properly to get a version #. What I'd like to know from the community is which version of Samba or OpenSuse is most friendly with these legacy files. This is a typical configuration for Samba [global] workgroup = mbd printing = cups printcap name = cups printcap cache time = 750 cups options = raw map to guest = Never include = /etc/samba/dhcp.conf logon path = \\%L\profiles\.msprofile logon home = \\%L\%U\.9xprofile logon drive = P: security = user encrypt passwords = yes ldap suffix = dc=example,dc=com domain logons = no ldap idmap suffix = ou=Idmap ldap machine suffix = ou=Computers local master = yes oplocks = yes level2 oplocks = no passdb backend = smbpasswd add machine script = preferred master = auto so_sndbuf = 14596 so_rcvbuf = 14596 wins server = wins support = yes netbios name = mbdserver [mbd] comment = Management by Design path = /home/mbd force create mode = 0770 force directory mode = 0770 writeable = yes browseable = yes guest ok = no printable = no -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/options/samba
[Samba] Basic Samba Server Global Options
I have a few OpenSuse Samba Servers. They are all stand alone File Servers. All the Clients are Windows XP. The Server and Clients are set up as a Workgroup. Usually no more than 15 Clients. The Samba Server is setup as the Master Browser, but as I read more about suggested options it becomes a little confusing. OS Level, ACL, etc... One shop loses connection to Samba Server frequently throughout the day. Before I debug that... I like some suggestions for the recommended Global Options in this kind of basic file server environment.

[Samba] Samba and DOS Attributes
I am trying to run a critical DOS (xBASE - Foxpro) application on a Suse Linux Enterpise Server with Samba 3x... I have turned off Oplocks2, but left oplocks on( without it, performance is miserable). Various command issued through the DOS Program, Record and File Locking, Copying Files, etc.. are causing Samba to change the file attribute in Linux to Read Only (Clients can't write to the files). A simple chmod -R 770 clears the problem until it comes back again. The DOS attributes don't change, even though Samba has the file a Read Only, the DOS attribute (looking from a command prompt), is still Read/Write...? Samba doesn't seem to like working with DOS, Are there any options I can set or change, or am I missing something basic. Any suggestions will be appreciated... -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba
