I just came across a resolution for using Offline files in Vista and thought 
I'd share it with others.  If anything, if I forget the solution, google for it 
- I'll hopefully find this post :)

When tryng to us offline files under Vista I found that it would throw the 
following errors for every file I tried to sync:
"... because file used by another process."

The problem was that oplocks (Oppurtunistic locking) was disabled in snv_111b 
(2009.06). Which is required for Vista. See: 
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/296264

Re-enabling it via the standard svc config steps, solved the problem:

root# svccfg -s smb/server listprop | grep oplock
smbd/oplock_enable                   boolean  false

root# svccfg -s smb/server
svc:/network/smb/server> setprop smbd/oplock_enable=true
svc:/network/smb/server> quit

root# svccfg -s smb/server listprop | grep oplock
smbd/oplock_enable                   boolean  true
