Re: urgent, can not 'save as' to samba share
Thanks, but
i had 'locking=yes' for two years now and had no problem, why now?
the man page says: Be careful about disabling locking either globally
or in a specific service, as lack of locking may
result in data corruption. You should never need to
set this parameter.
Default:
locking = yes
are you sure this is the right solutions ?
( and what does 'save as' has to do with locking ? )
thanks
erez.
