Hi,
I posted my problem to samba at samba.org as well, I think it boils down to
the post below. Is there a known fix to this problem ?
Thanks,
Charles

Ah. Now I think I get it ......
The new Microsoft redirectors use the "feature" of Microsoft SMB
implementations that SessionSetup SMB with the VC number set to 0
should terminate all previous sessions from the same client,
they don't bother to send a Logoff command any more.
We can change Samba to send all connected SMB's a "disconnect"
message when we get a new VC=0 SessionSetup to fix this I think.
I will investigate further.
Jeremy.
