Fix Cached Content¶
Sometimes when you are changing files and re-opening them quickly, Windows will cache the contents.
This is particularly problematic if you are modifying the files in Linux, and viewing the files in Windows.
To resolve this, disable level2 oplocks
and enable kernel oplocks
for the share or the whole server:
[homes]
# this is the template for each user's home directory
# don't specify a path, so we'll use the user's home dir
path = /home/%u/
comment = Your Home!
writable = yes
# always present consistent information
level2 oplocks = no
kernel oplocks = yes
# don't show the 'homes' share in a browser
browseable = no
Warning
This change comes with a significant performance penalty for some situations...
