[Samba] W2K Offline Files strange locking behavior

[pfb4212 at rit.edu]

Dear All,
   I want to enable Offline Files support on several Win2K SP4 laptops. We 
have a samba file server.  I have researched as much as I could to get 
answers and here is what I have.  I am unfortunately unable to get this 
working properly.  If anyone can answer or point me in to a good resource, 
I would greatly appreciate that. I am attempting to offline profile 
directories mapped to network drive letter X:.  Here is my config for the 
profiles share:
-----------------
[Profiles]
     comment = Shared User Profiles
     path = /home
     invalid users = nobody, guest
     create mask = 0600
     directory mask = 0700
     map acl inherit = Yes
     case sensitive = Yes
     hide special files = Yes
     store dos attributes = Yes
     csc policy = documents
     dos filemode = Yes
     dos filetime resolution = Yes
-----------------

I get an error similar to the following for every file that I try to make 
available offline:
 Could not make 'somthing.doc' available offline. The specified file can 
not be found.

If I create a new file, it appears as available offine, but I can neither 
delete nor rename it.
At that point I usually start to get an Access Denied error on the entire 
shared drive and am forced to restart.

The share is stored on a RHEL 3 server running Samba 3.0.9-1.3E.5 with an 
EXT3 file system with ACL support enabled.
I have also included my global configuration at the bottom of this email.

Here is my test procedure.
  -I make a share available offline.
  -It synchronizes showing all current files as "Unable to make 'file.txt' 
available offine on '\\server_b\profiles\testuser\My Documents'. The 
system cannot find the file specified."
  -I create new files in the folder while online.  They appear oplocked in 
samba status:
      DENY_NONE RDWR  EXCLUSIVE+BATCH  /home/testuser/My Documents/New 
Text Document.txt
  -I attempt to give the file a name. This results in "X:\My Documents 
folder does not exist.  Do you want to create it?"
  -The oplock is removed.
  -If I edit the file and attempt to save changes, I get "This file exists 
with Read Only attributes. Please use a different name."
  -If I then name the file something else, the file is created on the 
windows side and appears offline available. The file appears on the samba 
server also.
  -If I try to save this file again, I repeat the "This file exists with 
Read Only attributes..." situation from above.
  -Now, if I take the computer "offline" by disconnecting the NIC... all 
files behave normally.
  -After reconnecting, all files that were changed on windows while 
offline are synced to the samba server.

Could this have something to do with case sensitivity or such?

ANY help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks!  -Cheers, Peter.
