Re: SMB settings: Strikt locking not saved!?



The unfortunate aspect is that both are implemented only in Windows operating systems, and on Server, only for machines accessing the share point using SMB. Hence, any Mac accessing a file using AFP or SMB will not know about the locking and may modify the contents of the file without warning.

So that leaves "Strict on, Oplock off" as the only choice for a mixed mac/win environment, right?


Or would "S on, O on" allow the use of a file using oplock for an XP machine and lock it for mac clients at the same time, because strict is set, too? Doesn't make sense, I'm afraid... unless we have hierarchic locking here?!

Besides, at this time the only way to activate strict locking seems to be using "sudo sharing -e ShareName -t 1" in terminal.
