We strongly advise against re-exporting NFS imports via
Samba, this is asking for trouble on many fronts. You're
seeing one symptom of this. It might be the NetApp box, it
might also be flaws in the NFS client implementation, who
knows. Please enable the CIFS exports directly on the NetApp
filer.

If for some reason you can't, you might try "posix locking
= no" on the samba server.

[Samba] Samba and NFS locking on Netapp filers ?

2009-09-29 Thread Frank Bonnet

Hello

I have troubles with some shares that are NFS mounted to a Netapp
filer, if I enable locking on that share, the file cannot be opened
by the windows client in write mode ( read only after a looong time )

Anyone has the same problem , it seems to be a Netapp bug but
they do not support samba at all :-) so I don't expect any answer
from them.


thanks
