I downloaded the recent 2.2.8 release of Samba and installed it on a VAX and
an Alpha. NMBD runs fine on each. However, I can't connect from another
(Windows XP) system and prior to the 2.2.8 install, I could. TESTPARM
reports this:

I don't see the term "oplocks" mentioned in SMB.CONF anywhere, so what does
it mean? I did look for "oplocks" in the online docs and found that, by
default, both "oplocks" and "level2 oplocks" default to "yes". How,
therefore, is "oplocks" getting set to off? Do I want them on or off for
VMS? Would they have an effect on logging in?
