Hi,

My file server is configured in CentOs 5 samba share (samba version 3.0.26a) and in clients desktops, i have a mix environment windows XP + suse linux 10.3 All clients mount through samba in windows and in linux they share from nfs or samba (using cifs ) In the above case, when we try to open the same file first computer should get rw and other one should get read only. But here i get both files opened in rw mode, which shld not happen.

I tried following combinations for one file.

1. I opened one file in Linux and same time I open same file in Windows. I got write permissions at both end. 2. I opened same file in Linux and Linux. I got write permission at one and read only permission at other end. 3. I opened same file in Windows and Windows I got write permission at one end and read only permission at other end.

So here I want to eliminate 1 st. It should not open writable at both end.

Where I should look for ?

Below is my share [test] path = /home/<user> browseable = yes volume = test strict locking = yes force group = windows force user = <user> comment = testing
