ah, missed that. Had read it as if you were acting on the Samba server 
directly.

This smells like "strict rename" isn't enabled ? it isn't by
default.

Nope, it's not it.  strict rename only applies to dirs.
I'm writing about plain files, not only rename but also delete.

Enabling strict renames does not change anything.  Yes it prevents from
renaming a directory if a file is open inside.  But not renaming a plain
file which is locked.
