If both processes are Samba, the kernel oplock break mechanism should not be involved at all. At least it is supposed to work so that the oplock break is done with messages between the smbds. Kernel oplocks are only for interop with NFS and local unix processes. So if you're seeing kernel oplock breaks for files just held by Samba, Samba has a bug. If you can reproduce it, please file a bug at bugzilla.samba.org and upload a debug level 10 log of both smbd processes involved. Please also with "debug hires timestamps = yes". Volker
