-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 In rebuilding my machine after a crash I decided to try out mounting with cifs from samba, to avoid having to load both NFS and samba. I have hit a rather peculiar problem. When opening various Openoffice Database odb files that include queries and forms I find that the Forms and queries have disappeared and the database connection information goes awol. After various experiments I have found this happens when the odb file is stored to the cifs mount but not when I store the odb on the local file system. Documents seem to load and save without corruption (I have not checked other things yet). These worked without problem from a NFS mount before, and so far this only issue with the cifs mount I have found, but for me it is a bit of a showstopper. So far copying the the original odb files across directly from the cifs mount generates no problems, but I do not want to store these files locally. I have come across no references to this particular problem in searching. My samba config is now not entirely sane with the various things I have tried out and before I ditch the idea as unworkable, I am just wondering whether anyone else has come across this, and if so did they fix it (and how)?. - -- ============================================================================== I have always wished that my computer would be as easy to use as my telephone.
