I've got an interesting issue that I'm having trouble locating anything on. Here's the situation.
I've got a win2k server running IIS that keeps it's logs on a local drive. I'm running awstats from my fbsd server. Here's the glitch that I'm running into. If I use smbfs to access the shares so I can run awstats on the iis log files, I can't read the current log file if iis is running. However, if I run sharity light on the same share, I can then read the current file. At first glance, there appears to be a lock in place that smbfs honors whereas sharity light does not. I would prefer to use smbfs as it's internal to the os, and I'm mounting to a remote san connected to another windows server for my daily dump backups. I'd prefer not to have to use both of them to get the job done. Has anyone any information at all on just what is occuring here or is there something just plain simple that I'm missing? The smbfs mount is configured as noauto,rw in fstab. I can write to the slice, but just can't read the active server log file.
