We are using nobrl in a production environment with 3k workstations. This fixed also problems with CIFS clients on low bandwidth connections. There a kernel bug led to corrupted files by race conditions between application writes and the kernel flushing buffers in kernel mode - without looking at the locks by the application write (different writing processes).
Maybe that is fixed in newer kernels ... -- [upstream] OOo can not save files to NAS cifs - needs nobrl or disable locking https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/486443 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
