Yes, so I have been thinking myself, but when logging on to the Solaris 
samba server which mounts from the 2.5.1 nfs server, checking/accessing 
the files/directories seems fine. No locking problems. Also, when using 
a Sgi samba server mounting from the same Solaris 2.5.1 system, 
everything is fine. One should think that it is more likely that things 
would work better between two Sun boxes than between a Sun and a Sgi. I 
will try to patch the Solaris 2.5.1 server with the latest recommended 
set and see if this helps.
