All,
Is anyone else experiencing this...
SuSE 10.2 openOffice 2.3.0.1 (updated to 2.3.0.1.2-4.1 )
When attempting save a modified word format document to a cifs share I get the 'could not create backup copy' error message (usually indicates a cifs file locking problem).
When I do the same either on the local file system or with an open office document on any file system I have no problems at all.
Last time I checked it was not reported in bugzilla, and if anyone is experiencing the same problem I will report this, otherwise I will have to spend some time tweaking samba share settings.
I use openSuSE 10.3 (x86_64) accessing cifs shares on an openSuSE 10.2 (x86_64) server and openOffice 2.3 and get the exact same error the first time I hit Ctl-s to save a document. The second time I hit Ctl-s it saves the document s I never really bothered to investigate and didn't realize that it was only when I was saving to a cifs share.

Now that is an interesting variant on the theme. I usually use file->save need to check what happens if I use Ctl-s...

I don't have any problem either way, but my Samba setup may not be as secure as it should be. In particular from my workstation (OS 10.3, which only I use): My fstab has: //10.0.1.42/data /Z cifs user=gaf,pass=<mypass>,noperm,dir_mode=0777,rw 0 0 My CIFS server is a OpenSUSE 10.2 machine running Samba.
