multiple users are able to edit concurrently

vinhqchu

hello,

when one user has a file opened through cifs and is editing it, when i second user opens the same file, it should open as read only correct? i've seen two instances where users are able to edit at the same time, causing one to overwrite the other.

is there anyway to prevent this? is this a bug?

thank you in advance,
vinh.

To prevent other users from editing a document you're working on you have to check out that document first. With CIFS you have to drag and drop that document onto the " _CheckInOut"-icon. This creates a working-copy of the document you can edit.

Kind regards

i try to encourage users to practice checking out/in, but most are too lazy and just open the file instead. is there a way to lock the file without checking out/in?

You can lock a file without checking it out. But how would you distinguish between someone opening to read the file and someone opening to edit the file? Once the file is locked, how do you work out when to release it?

i guess what i really need is, when a file is opened, by someone who can edit it, that subsequent users who open the file will only have it as read-only. is this possible?
