Lines: 21 Hi, i have a question that really make me puzzled. When using TOPS network, i am able to make non-network programs to multilaunch from the server by changing the SHARED bit using resedit. However, when using AppleShare, the above steps only allow me to multilaunch an application for as many as 4 users. So, when the fifth user comes and wants to use the program, a dialog box will pop and tell me the applications is BUSY. (On TOPS, I have never see this error once the SHARED bit is check) Does anybody out there know why this is so ?? It works on TOPS perfectly but partially on AppleShare. Why ?? Thanks for your help.
