I'm sure an appropriate Google search will find a great deal of pertinent information, since it's been well discussed before (although I'm not sure whether it was here). -- --- #include disclaimer.h Matthew Palmer, Geek In Residence http://ieee.uow.edu.au/~mjp16 -- SLUG - Sydney Linux User's Group - http://slug.org.au/ More Info: http://lists.slug.org.au/listinfo/slug
Re: [SLUG] MYOB performance over Samba share
Hi Steve, Is it only the MYOB that is suffering? I've successfully shared MYOB .prm files before - you do need to ensure that all the MYOB users belong to one accounting group, the directory has group permissions set correctly (the accounting group) and that the Samba share has the force-group option set. If other Samba shares work fine, then that may be your only problem - else it could be a MYOB setup issue. Warmest regards Mike --- Michael S. E.

Re: [SLUG] MYOB performance over Samba share
Title: Message Hello Steve, I have used MYOB Premier on Samba Server previously. I have used it for about 7 years. There were 6 personssharingthe range of financial database, General Ledger, Payroll, Accounts Receivable, and Accounts Payable, and Asset Ledger. There were about 100 transactions a day. So, a small operations by many standards. My perceptiion then was that it was acceptable by our own standards. It depends on how many users are using the databases and how intense by way of transaction numbers concurrently. By the way, MYOB was not engineered for large volume transactions. And how many users and daily transactions do you have ? - Original Message - From: Steve Sulman To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, June 25, 2003 12:53 PM Subject: [SLUG] MYOB performance over Samba share Hello Good People, In trying to track down why MYOB Premier performs so badly when the PRM files are shared using Samba on Linux (2.2.8-1 on RH8), I came across several references on your mailing list archives, but no real solutions.
