[Samba] remove_oplock: failed to lock share entry...

[Thomas Schulz]

Here is what I could find. The iso file is created on a Solaris system on
a file system that is NFS mounted from our main file server. Then it is
burned to a CD on a Windows 7 PC through a Samba server running on a
different Solaris machine (Solaris 10) that is also NFS mounting the
file system.
As a test I have tried accessing a newly created iso file created on the
machine that created the subject file and then accessed through the same
Samba server. I can not duplicate the messages. I did not burn the file
to a CD but instad copied it to another location.

Without a reproducer it's going to be difficult to
know what the problem is, sorry :-(.

Just got back from vacation....

Under what conditions is an oplock used? I am assuming that it's purpose
is to prevent any changes to a file while the file is in use. Is an oplock
taken whenever a file is opened?
