7 | This is an enumerated type that controls the handling of file locking in the server. When this is set to <constant>yes</constant>,
|
---|
8 | the server will check every read and write access for file locks, and deny access if locks exist. This can be slow on
|
---|
9 | some systems.

12 | <para>
|

13 | When strict locking is set to Auto (the default), the server performs file lock checks only on non-oplocked files.
|
---|
14 | As most Windows redirectors perform file locking checks locally on oplocked files this is a good trade off for
|
---|
15 | improved performance.

19 | When strict locking is disabled, the server performs file lock checks only when the client explicitly asks for them.

23 | Well-behaved clients always ask for lock checks when it is important. So in the vast majority of cases,
|
---|
24 | <command moreinfo="none">strict locking = Auto</command> or
|
---|
25 | <command moreinfo="none">strict locking = no</command> is acceptable.
