hi all we recently moved our data from a winnt 4 server to a linux/samba server. since the migration, users on the citrix boxes occasionally get error messages when trying to open or save word and excel files into common file shares. i think it is only the common file shares that are causing us the grief. we are using citrix metaframe xp over win2k and samba v3.0.2 on redhat 7.3 we have trying upping the connections on the samba box. this reduced the amount of calls relating to files getting locked, but now we have maxed out the parameter, we think we are looking in the wrong direction. 2 things are really confounding - 1. it doesn't happen for all files, and 2. it tends to come and go.
