But, some times that can result in corrupted files back on the server if...
... no need to say more :-)

IMHO, this is a real good reason to disable oplocks.

I don't believe that in a production environment one could take such a risk. I personaly had Excel files corrupted. Had to take it back from backup sets. I really had to find good BOFH excuses for my users :-/

Editing the corrupted .xls file, I found that Samba loggued kind of samba log output in it instead putting it to /var/log/log.smbd :-)

Search for my mail on bug 26128 in this list for example and/or more info.

I really think oplocks could be is real good thing if there were no such risks using it :-)

Cheers,
