Unsolicited oplock breaks

Dear All,

	we've been having some intermittent problems with students who's home directories are on a 
Sun E450 running Samba 2.0.6. I'm not totally convinced that the problem is caused by the 
server, but may be the network. However, I've had a look at the log.smb file and I'm seeing some 
error messages that I've not come across before:

[2001/02/23 18:20:40, 0] smbd/oplock.c:process_local_message(581)
  process_local_message: unsolicited oplock break reply from pid 23624, port 56684, dev = 
2580006, inode = 3264116
[2001/02/23 18:20:40, 0] smbd/oplock.c:process_local_message(566)
  process_local_message: Received unsolicited break reply - dumping info.
[2001/02/23 18:20:40, 0] smbd/oplock.c:process_local_message(581)
  process_local_message: unsolicited oplock break reply from pid 23624, port 56684, dev = 
2580006, inode = 3264116
[2001/02/23 18:20:40, 0] smbd/oplock.c:process_local_message(566)
  process_local_message: Received unsolicited break reply - dumping info.

I've tried to find out what these actually mean but without luck so far. Is there anyone out there 
that can tell me what these mean - it may help me diagnose the problem.
