delete on close problems(Content Filtered by PrivateArk)

[Nir Livni]

Samba does not allow user B to open the file for read after user A has
opened it for delete_on_close.
NT/2K server allows it.

My question is why samba allows user A to open delete_on_close after user B
opens for read,
And does not allow user B open for read after user A opens for
delete_on_close.

Unfortunately there's no way to tell something is normal if not testing the
same against an NT/2k server. If the same happens there, then it is
"normal".

Simo.
