We have an application that runs on our front end MF XPe servers that connects to files on a back end file server. We are running into a problem that the application software company said to turn off opslock on both the front end and back end servers. We have done that and still get calls from users saying that files are locked by their own user id. And when we look on the back end serer they have 2-4 sessions showing under their user id. Have then log out and kill all the open file sessions and they can log back in with out a problem.
What is causing this? I have googled "opslock" to death and have read on a couple sites that it is a problem related to 2003? Has anyone else had this problem? I read on one site that Microsoft knew about the problem and had some secret fix for it, but would only release it if you were running some special application. All 4 servers (3 Citrix front end servers and 1 back end file server) are running Windows Server 2003 Standard Edition. We did not have this problem on our olf NT4/MF1.8 environment.
Thanks in advance for any help!
