[Samba] problem saving word documents

Hello Johan.

I'm having a similar problem, except its on opening the word or excel doc on
the win2K machine.  Just a shot in the dark, but I think its got to do with
disk quotas, there isn't enough space, a word or excel doc takes up a heck
of a lot of space.  I thought this may be something new to look at, but the
errors seem to suggest oplock problems.

Hope you come right, tell the list if you do, I'll be looking for replies to
this subject.

Chow, Trevor.
