I just upgrade from SUSE9.3 to SUSE10.0 and running samba-3.0.22-11. I have
a workstation which store outlook.pst on Samba share.
Yesterday, this workstation get hang and after a cold boot. It can't access
the outlook.pst anymore, the system reported the pst file is using by
someone and outlook can't open it?.
Sometimes this works:
1. Login to the samba server.
2. Run a "smbstatus".
3. Find the pid of the process that has the lock on the file
in the third section of the output.
4. Verify that it matches the expected user and hostname
in the first and second sections of the smbstatus output.
5. Run "ps -ef" and see how long the smbd with that pid has
been running.
6. If it has been running since before the computer was last
rebooted, it's a left over smbd. Kill JUST THAT ONE smbd.
(And make sure you get the right one -- it should be one
that has a parent pid not equal to 1.)
