Hey all. I have just upgraded my win2k server at work to a Mandake 10.0 Official server running samba/winbind. As a file server, the SW file directories are working just fine. I am having a bit of trouble with the toolbox share tho. We are on SW2004/SP3.0. Samba is v3.0.2a. Problem is, only one user can access the toolbox at a time. I get this error from solidworks: Unable to open master database due to the following database access error: Could not lock file. All of the directories on the server are 0775, owned by nicke:Engineering (which exist on the MSWin2k domain controller). Any ideas why I'm having this problem? Or is this a solidworks bug that I can't do a thing about? Except for this one problem everything else is working perfectly: sw file shares, printing, etc. Thanks, nick e. toolbox.ini: (T is the mapped /swtoolbox share) [Toolbox environment configuration file] Creation=2004-03-22 at 15:11:26 [configuration] ToolboxPartFolder=T:\Solidworks Data smb.conf: [global] workgroup = domain netbios name = engserv server string = Engineering Samba Server %v printcap name = cups load printers = yes printing = cups printer admin = @adm log file = /var/log/samba/log.%m max log size = 50 guest account = guest security = domain password server = 192.168.0.5 encrypt passwords = yes smb passwd file = /etc/samba/smbpasswd winbind uid = 10000-20000 winbind gid = 10000-20000 winbind use default domain = yes socket options = TCP_NODELAY SO_RCVBUF=8192 SO_SNDBUF=8192 local master = no wins server = 192.168.0.5 dns proxy = no [swtoolbox] path = /swtoolbox comment = SW Toolbox Files public = yes writable = no write list = @domain\Engineering administrator force group = domain\Engineering [engineering] path = /eng1 comment = Engineering files public = yes writable = no write list = @domain\Engineering administrator force group = domain\Engineering
It sounds like an oplocks problem, but your smb.conf appears to be set correctly to allow oplocks, since that is the default. http://www.oreilly.com/catalog/samba/chapter/book/ch05_05.html JTH
