samba - Nov 2008 - Reconnect behaviour

Hello,

Does Samba server have a grace period that allows a client to reopen its files
and reacquire locks on them before the locks are given to other clients? If
there is no grace period, is there a way for the client to avoid the lock
ownerships files if the connection goes away for a short period (say few
seconds).

Thanks and Regards

Look at the option "reset on zero vc" in recent Samba
versions.
