[Bug 1909863] [NEW] Lotus Approach loses information while having open several entries

[Marcus Wiegand]

Public bug reported:

I am not sure, whether this is a problem from Ubuntu 20.04 LTS or the
SAMBA-package. I experienced the following misbehaviour after installing
v 20.04 LTS (not having this in 16.04 LTS nor 18.04 LTS): I am using the
Desktop version of Ubuntu. I installed the SAMBA-package. I am using
Lotus Approach v 98 (I know, very old, but still working). Approach-
files are all stored on the Ubuntu/Samba-Standalone Server in a
dedicated share. Until 20.04 LTS, several users could have open entries
in their frontend in the same dbase-file (running the program on each
PC) and nothing worse happened, when another user closed the entry or
opened an new one. Now, with the 20.04 Relase, I suddenly experience,
that open entries disappear. I cross-checked with 16.04 LTS and 18.04
LTS and this does not happen there.
