He didn't say he was sharing a working copy. :) If he is sharing a
working copy, then yes, he should stop that. But for example at the
web design shop where I used to work, the developers also used
Windows machines, and used TortoiseSVN to check out working copies
onto Samba-mounted shares from a central Linux development server.
These were private working copies for each developer, in their home
directory on the Linux server. It worked. Something could be strange
about Alexxoid's Samba setup that's preventing it from working for him.
