Is not it set by default?  ...to "no" on platforms does not supporting 
the oplocks in kernel?

It was exactly what I needed to know if is not there any option to 
emulate the oplocks on fcntl locks for instance.

Exactly I needed to know if there is no possibility (configure or patch 
samba) to break the oplocks on clients when some other application than 
samba modify the oplocked file?
