[Samba] Samba writes in wrong file

[Markus Ungermann]

Hello,

i have the problem that samba writes in the wrong files
This is the original log.smbd and there you can find something from 
Mozilla 1.4 inside:

Later i get a Seek-File Fehler:

[2003/09/01 15:18:00, 0] smbd/fileio.c:seek_file(43)
   seek_file: 
(Netscape/giesler/u40jwlc6.slt/ImapMail/imap.elzet80.de/INBOX.sbd/Junk.msf) 
sys_lseek failed. Error was Bad file descriptor

This happens at other Sambafiles too, und it seems not to be Mozilla 
specific only.

At the sambaserver runs an old (but we must use) DOS-Databases called
AREV - Advanced Revelation. This Database uses a "byte range locking".
At the moment i don't know what this realy is.

If i got the errors only (at the moment) when the database runs.

Do you have an idea, or ever see something like this ?

Thank you very much !!!

My smb.conf:
the oplocks=No is old, but could be an error.
This was done, because the database should do the oplocks.

version:    2.2.8a-0.1 for Debian
