Subject: [netatalk-admins] Filemaker pro

I have a small network of macs logging in to a netatalk server. (pre-asun
2.1.2-8)

They have a problem with opening multi user filemaker databases. If one
user has opened the file the next one to try receives a consistency check
warning followed by a file lock error and they are unable to continue.

owner and groups permission are -rwxrwsrwt.

Am I right in thinking that this is down to the way filemaker handles
multiuser databases or is it something to do with the way unix file locks
work.
