Thanks for explaining the complexities. A few more questions:
1. Does that mean Sergey's hack to mfs.c is not a permanent solution?
I've made the changes but am waiting for my Foxpro users to test it.
2. Is using smbmount to access the Foxpro files from Dosemu a valid way
to get around the locking problem? I suspect it will be slower but
anything else?
Thanks again.
Stephen
