And as it turned out, that was not the case. I started copying a
200MiB file from my desktop machine onto the Samba share. While that was
copying, I got onto the server and tried to copy the file to /tmp and it
happily did that for me without any indication that it was still being written
to (which is was by the way.) So, that's not a good way of dealing with this.
I think I'm going to have to go with a time delay function here ...
