Brian,
I'm forwarding this to the main Samba mailing list
as I think the reply will be of general interest.
Herb & I (here at our lab at SGI) have finally managed
to reproduce this with 60 clients hitting the server in
a pathalogical test case and comparing the way Samba
responds with the way NT responds (I'm guessing this
is with Win95 clients, right ?).
The result is that we have a decent fix for this which
is in the 2.0 branch and will be available in 2.0.4
(due soon-ish). 2.0.4 should make oplocks *much* more
reliable with Win95 clients (as we now do the same sneaky
thing that NT does to make them work all the time, rather
than just most of the time :-).
Regards,
Jeremy Allison,
Samba Team.
