samba - Oct 2001 - Problems Accessing the same file with more than 1 client

Hi,

I've a samba server on debian (sid) kernel 2.4.4, samba version 2.2.1.
The clients are windows95 pc's. These clients can access a large EXT2 share
(30gb) with files on it. The client are provided an IP address from the same
server samba runs on.

Here is my problem, i use virtual cdrom (a tool under windows), if client A
tries to access and USE a file, everything is going allright. BUT... if client B
tries to access and use the same file, i get an error and client B crashes,
etc.. (windows stuff):

Turn off all oplocks on the Samba server. Windows 95 is known to be
broken with regard to oplocks.
