The Samba-HOWTO-Collection has a chapter on "File and Record Locking" that may help you. The bottom line is that Microsoft recognise that sometimes the only way to avoid a potential oplock problem is by turning off client registry settings that cause it to request oplock behaviour. I have documented specific examples of this in my new book "Samba-3 by Example", however, the core of the information you need is in the Samba-HOWTO-Collection chapter I refer you to. You can find the HOWTO collection from the documentation page of the Samba web sites.
