Would you mind to allow me a look in the smb.conf (in private email)? Maybe
there is some difference ...

The funny part about it is: I am trying to migrate a working setup where the
"server" is MARS (nwe) (netware server simulation under linux) to samba,
everything else identical. The same dos application is working fine with nwe
"shares" and can be started several times without any troubles.

I can't tell, I have no windows server at hand currently. 
What can I do to find out exactly what filesystem actions are causing the
troubles?
