Sounds like Windows clients cache the contents of network drives and 
don't expect them to be changed by others. Someting like opportunistic 
locking on directories. So it probably happens only on client that had 
already been looking on that directory before its contents were changed. 
Others, who go there after the change, see the new contents immediately. 
Maybe a recent Windows patch has 'improved' the network caching strategy 
to achieve higher speed.
