Vim detects a file on a VMS Samba share has changed when it has not

I am using Vim on Linux to edit files on a Samba share on VMS. I am
finding that it detects a file has changed when it has not. That is,
the following dialog box appears a couple of minutes after I start
editing:
W12: Warning: File "/dyma/s/dymax/020005/bg.tas" has changed and the
buffer was changed in Vim as well
See ":help W11" for more info.
Here is a dir/full of that file on VMS. Perhaps a significant detail is
that the file is owned by [DV.BH] whereas I am [DV,BG]. Also, I have
seen the same dialog box appear when the text file is a "Stream" file,
so I don't think the fact that it is a "Variable" file has any bearing
on the problem.

Any ideas as to what could be wrong? Further tests I could do to narrow
down the possibilities?
Thanks,
