| Dan, my apologies, but...
We have just managed to track down the client's network engineer and it
seems our client misinformed us. They are not running a Linux file server
as we were originally told. They are running a Unix file server and have
Samba installed on top of that to interface with the Windows OS workstations
and run their Microsoft applications.
How would that setup affect my VFP RLOCK() code?
Thanks again - Debbie

I've never used Samba, but I know several who hang here have so maybe one of
them will chime in.
