Samba and PowerPoint files on Win2K client read-only

We are running Samba 1.9.8a on Unix SCO Open server. It was working fine
with Win95 and Win NT clients. But now we have 2 clients running Win2000.
And  when they try to open  PowerPoint files that reside on the server it is
read only. Permissions on PowerPoint files are open for read and write for
everybody. If I change ownership of the file as client username then no
problem. File will open for writing also. 
In the  log file  it has error message:
    unknown command type (SMBunknown): cnum=36 type=160 (0xA0)   Unknown
message type 160!


Any help would be appreciated.
Thank you,

Lena
