samba - Oct 2002 - oplock_break

Dear Samba users,
	I've had a problem recently with Samba (2.2.3a, and now 2.2.5)
on my OpenBSD 3.1-stable Installation. 

Bsd: OpenBSD 3.1-stable (CYNOSURE) #1: Fri Oct  4 01:06:45 EST 2002
    avant@XXXX:/usr/src/sys/arch/i386/compile/CYNOSURE

I get problems such as these:

The problems seemed to start happening since I recompiled the kernel to
merge in the latest errata re: the OpenBSD kernel. So what I did was
download and recompile (with my current kit) the latest samba package
(2.2.5) but still seem to be getting these problems. I have rebooted the
machine twice since, but to no avail. These connections happen over an
IPSEC connection over my DSL modem. It's been working before, but not
now?

Any ideas people?

I keep getting problems with XP word documents becoming read only during
editing and this is a typical log entry for the event:

This is RedHat 7.2 with Samba 2.2.7 from the RPMs


It's only a 12 station network and I don't think that we need oplocks so
I
have

[global]
oplocks = false
kernel oplocks = false
level2 oplocks = false

in /etc/samba/smb.conf

But still they come!

I am statring to get desparate as the fix maybe to install a Win2K server -
Arrrrrgh!

Any ideas gratfully discussed.

Sorry in advance for any imbecility!

The Samba docs I have list the "oplocks" and "level2
oplocks" params as
being share level, not global and on by default.
What does a testparm show you?
