Read-only Documents

[nsomaru]

Hi all,

When attempting to edit any files via CIFS, WebDAV, or FTP, the file is first saved to a local disk. Then when I try to over-write the previous file, it is now "read-only" and I cannot update the file.

Is there no way to get CIFS working like a normal shared drive, where the file gets locked for editing and I can read/write directly to that file?

Thanks,
Nikhil Somaru

Hi nsomaru,

CIFS works , Does the  logged in user has rights of editing the document .
WEB DAV will work for  word document .

Thanks,

Hi Amita,

In CIFS, the user attempting to edit is the manager of the site concerned.

Thanks,
