<snip> Doh! The clue was in the question.. Why was it only failing for word doc files and not open office documents.... I look at at my smb,conf in text form and it became blindingly obvious, did not notice the flaw in swat for some reason ... My smb,conf is rather complex ... and the word document extension was not included in the oplock veto list for the particular share definition, (for some reason I was under the impression I had included the extension)... ooo does not do oplocks well and this setting disables this fore these files...
