subject: Dos error 5 under win95

FC ->Sometimes, our application (Clipper 5.2e + Exospace 1.0g under Windows
   ->95) crash with "Dos error 5" on various workstations (4 pc with Win95,
   ->3 user + 1server).
   ->I don't know if there is a way to configure Win95 about maximum number
   ->of shareable files, like parameters /L & /F in SHARE.EXE on DOS
   ->machines).
   ->Is there anyone can help me for this problem ?????       Thank you!
Several people have reported this problem with this configuration.
Everyone who got it fixed reported they only switched linkers from
Exospace to Blinker.
The reported problems have been DOS error 5 and various "lock failed"
error messages.
One of the problems I have with Exospace is that there is no ongoing
development for it, whereas Blinker is a bread-and-butter product for
BlinkInc.
Check out their web site at  http://www.blinkinc.com  . They have a
demo available that will allow an executable to run for five minutes.
If you can reliably dupliacte the problem, that should tell you if
Blinker will fix it.
