So I have to have BOTH client opportunistic locking/caching and server file caching turned off?

Here's what I currently have them setting:
Win 98 machines - CACHE WRITES = OFF
FILE CACHE LEVEL = 0
TRUE COMMIT = ON
OPPORTUNISTIC LOCKING = OFF

Win 2000/XP - FILE CACHING = OFF
FILE COMMIT = ON

So I have to tell them to set the server CLIENT FILE CACHING ENABLE to OFF also?

Thanks,
Ken

All of my Novell customers have been instructed to turn off opportunistic locking,etc. on their client machines but I still have several that get corrupted DBFs on a regular basis.
