I fear it's not an oplocks problem...
I'm experiencing the very same problem on a Mandrake 9 box running Samba
2.2.7, and in my case the affected files are normal MS Office documents.
Please have a look to my previous message "Self-locking files?", roughly one
month ago, in the mailing list for details.
As suggested [by Joel, btw], I set the oplocks to disabled in the samba cfg
file (even 2nd level oplocks) but to no avail. It still happens, randomly.
I'd say a few times a day, with an average of 10 samba users.
I don't dare to upgrade to Samba 2.2.7A or newer because, apart from that
symptom, my samba box is doing a great job, and I don't want to take a risk.
Corrado
