File Access Problems

hettyhetty Member Posts: 394
Hey

Im having problems with some programs running off an open network share. Everyone has full access, so file permissions isnt the problem. Running Server 2000 and it allows me access to like 15 people on at the same time to the same files required off the network share but then it says the files are locked when any more try to use the application. Its not a database just files. Don't know whats in them but they are not databases anyway. Is it a Server 2000 issue or is it the application?

    Have you tried configuring the maximum allowed property of the share?
    There is no place like 127.0.0.1 BUT 209.62.5.3 is my 127.0.0.1 away from 127.0.0.1!

    Just a shot in the dark, but maybe you start watching in Computer Management\Shared Folders\Open Files for a few days and see if you find any patterns, ie, the same user has the file locked, etc. and narrow it down from there. I don't think it's an OS issue if you had it set to unlimited.
