Hi, I asked this once and no one seem to answer. So I'm trying once again:
I have the following problem: I have a linux samba server and a lot of linux clients that connect to it. What I noticed is that if one of the clients create new file and starts do some operation on it - the file is unreadable for all other clients (output od smbstatus: DENY_FCB RDWR NONE) - which is OK I suppose. But if the connection between the client and the server disappears while client is working on the newly created file, the file stays locked and in some occasions even when the connection is established again the file stays locked, the client cannot access the mounted drive - and the client should be restarted. Which is strange I noticed that if a Windows client do the same operation - the file is at least readable for other clients. I played a lot with the lock options and tried to remove the DENY_FCB - setting "share modes = no" but nothing helped - I have this problem. So please advice - how can I prevent this file locking when connection between master and client disappears ? For me this look like a bug.
