Guess I spoke too fast, although I no longer have any issue using
smbclient, from windows 2000 / XP , the problem still exists.
same NFS mount point works fine through a samba-2.2.3a-6 install....
pullling my hair out !

I had tried to disable oplocks , that didn't work. I should buy myself

I agree that it's not the best idea, it's a temporary way to move data
from server to server with breaking user's mappings. I'll change their
mappings in their login scripts.

Please don't re-export NFS imports via Samba. This is not
really supported exactly due to the problems you mention.
If you absolutely must do this because for example your
NetApp NFS server does not have CIFS enabled, you might want
to try setting "posix locking = no" in your smb.conf. This
works around bugs in your NFS client and means
cross-protocol locking is not done.
