I have the following share in my smb.conf : [cdrom] comment = Samba server's CD-ROM writable = no locking = no path = /media/cdrecorder public = yes When I go to that share from a Windows workstation it does still lock as you can see: [root@pc843 ~]# lsof | grep cdrecorder smbd 9647 root 20w DIR 22,0 2048 1792 /media/cdrecorder smbd 9647 root 27r DIR 22,0 2048 1792 /media/cdrecorder This prohibits me of ejecting my cdrom when someone's browsing it. I have version 3.0.14a-2 Is this a bug or expected behavior? -- for some how-to's and rpms visit my site : http://solid.bounceme.net for commercially supported solutions visit : http://www.robas.com

This is normal, expected behaviour if the client still has the share open.
