Run into a weird one. When students save their MS Publisher files to the

then try to resave them they will not save. Even if they save with an
extra number behind the original file name they do not save. I enabled
hidden files and I do not see any lock files that have been placed into
the Samba server /users/home folder?
This is MS Office 2003, if that makes any diff. I never see any errors  in
the samba logs either right after doing the failed save.All other formats
of MS Office save and re save fine. Anyone run into this before?

What error message do you get when you try to save?

I get the impression Publisher 2003 has some bugs with the way it saves things.

Here at the school I work for, we get students who have Publisher files corrupted when they hit their quota. No warnings from Publisher that it ran out of space, just a corrupted file.

And at another place I support, they had a file get corrupted simply by saving. No space issues at all. No copying... Simply saved, quit and it wouldn't open again half an hour later on the same PC.

Not that any of that helps this particular issue... I just wanted to say it may just be Publisher is dodgy.
