I had a similar problem but upgrading to 2.2.3a fixed it! Some suggestions:
Check service packs
As a temporary fix, set the deadtime parameter to something small eg 1 minute.
The client will be dropped and then auto reconnect with a new session - should
be able to delete again. This might tide you over until you get a real fix.
Another bizarre thing is the way you delete. Try from the command line and
various combinations of using left or right hand pane in Explorer.
Check your Oplock settings and try a different combination.

Hello - I'm having a problem with deletion of folders/files on a samba
server-
background info:
RH 7.2 patched to current, custom linus kernel v 2.4.16, compiled samba 2.2.3a
from source -
Problem is using NT/2000 client - Client can create files/directories, but when
trying to delete a directory, gets access denied errors, and the folder wont
delete (but the files inside do?!!) - If the client copies a directory to the
share, all is good and he can delete it all - files as well as subdirs - Seems
to be only happening on directories the user has created - if he disconnects
from the share, then reconnects - he can delete the files he couldnt before?
...strange!
any ideas, or am I missing something small?? (File perms on /usr/share are
correct, I can create/edit/delete files there)

TIA, and regards,
