This is an old issue that does not seem want to go away, and for some
reason it is unique to openOffice on Linux (possibly because openOffice
has to run both on Windoze and *NIX ). I have yet to come across another
application which has this problem.

It is usually something to with file locks on a samba mounted cifs file
system and as AFAIK security is not reported be a contributory factor.
What would be interesting here is info on the server fs and the samba
settings on the file share.
