Hi people: I'm using Samba 3.5.11 with some sharing settings like these: [global] workgroup = MARKETING netbios name = SMBSERVER server string = Samba, OpenLDAP Server obey pam restrictions = Yes passdb backend = ldapsam:"ldap://localhost" passwd program = /usr/sbin/smbldap-passwd %u passwd chat = *New*password* %n\n *Retype*new*password* %n\n *all*authentication*tokens*updated* client lanman auth = Yes log level = 2 log file = /var/log/samba/samba.log time server = Yes printcap name = cups add user script = /usr/sbin/smbldap-useradd -m "%u" delete user script = /usr/sbin/smbldap-userdel "%u" add group script = /usr/sbin/smbldap-groupadd -p "%g" delete group script = /usr/sbin/smbldap-groupdel "%g" add user to group script = /usr/sbin/smbldap-groupmod -m "%u" "%g" delete user from group script = /usr/sbin/smbldap-groupmod -x "%u" "%g" set primary group script = /usr/sbin/smbldap-usermod -g "%g" "%u" add machine script = /usr/sbin/smbldap-useradd -w "%u" logon path logon home domain logons = Yes preferred master = Yes domain master = Yes wins support = Yes ldap admin dn = cn=admin,dc=marketing-alterno,dc=com ldap delete dn = Yes ldap group suffix = ou=groups ldap idmap suffix = ou=people ldap machine suffix = ou=machines ldap passwd sync = yes ldap suffix = dc=marketing-alterno,dc=com ldap ssl = no ldap user suffix = ou=people [sharing] path = /var/samba/sharing valid users = @accounting, "@Domain Admins" admin users = "@Domain Admins" read only = No inherit permissions = Yes vfs objects = recycle recycle:exclude = *.tmp|*.TMP|*.temp|*.o|*.obj|~$*|*.~??|*.log|*.trace recycle:versions = yes recycle:keeptree = yes recycle:repository = .trash Many times when a user open, modifies and then close a Office 2010 document (Word, Excel, Power Point), the file keeps locked. A different user tries to open the file and gets a error message related to locking, read only permissions or something similar. After a unknown amount of time (it could be seconds, minutes, i'm not sure how long) the locking seems to dissapear. I tried some options settings related to file locking without success. There are so many options that using the right combination of them to achieve the expected result is difficult to me. Does anybody has experimented and solved this issue? I hope someone can help me. Thanks

I did an upgrade to the newest version, changed my share concept and worked with force mode, force group.... And the problem has gone. I don't know if that's a solution for you, anyway it worked for me.... -- Raffael Sahli public at raffaelsahli.com
