[Samba] App fails writing file but zero length file on Samba server

Hi all
I've googled but not found any thing on the problem I'm having.
I'm contracting with a utilities company that uses General Electric's
ENMAC software. This runs on RHEL4 and makes use of Samba but it only
works with Samba 1.9.18p10 compiled with this patch:
---
diff -Naur samba-1.9.18p10/source/includes.h
samba-1.9.18p10_good/source/includes.h

struct semid_ds *buf;

As I'm trying to streamline the building of these servers, I thought
I'd try upgrading Samba to a reasonably current version. I'm trying
with latest version of Samba shipped by RedHat (3.0.33-0.17.el4).
When an edit is made and then saved in the application, the
application responds with 'Failed to open file for writing' and on the
Samba server a zero length file of the correct name appears. This
works just fine with the patched Samba 1.9.18p10.
The smb.conf files are attached.
Does anyone have any ideas on how to make this work without patching Samba?
TIA
CC
