[Samba] Strange MS-Access Problems with Samba 2.2.1a

Hello,

something strange happens sometimes with a MS access Database when trying to
open it on a samba share. The database is destroyed and I think the problem
is Samba cause in the database file you can find some log entries from
samba. I got some tips from a german ng but I think it is better to publish
it here cause might be a bug in samba 2.2.1a.
I use samba 2.2.1a on Suse 7.3 and MS Office 2000 with service pack 2 on
WIN98 SE
greetings
Gregor
