I believe I've seen this bug too. However, I have a different
interpretation of why it happens. I've submitted a bug report at the
following
http://bugs.samba.org/cgi-bin/samba-bugs/incoming?id=21897;user=guest
I believe this bug occurs when you try to delete a directory which has
opened subdirectories. Furthermore, it only occurs on Windows 2000 on
Samba-2.2.x. I've tested Samba-2.0.10 and it doesn't seem to have this
bug.
Can you confirm that this bug only occurs with W2K clients please? Can
you also confirm that it isn't with Windows Explorer per sec, but with
opened subdirectories?
Thanks

PS Does anybody know where old versions of Samba source kept. I had
difficulty tracking down old pristine releases of Samba.
