[Samba] Can't mount iso files in samba environment

[Charles Hamel]

I would suggest turning on debugging in smb.conf (log level = 2 or 3) 
and looking for oplocks messages. This is probably your problem, in the 
case of ISO images, since they are read-only content, you could try 
enabling fake oplocks in smb.conf. Do not enable it on Read/Write shares 
since this can lead to nasty file corruption.

hope it helps
