This problem with Excel is covered by the following CR. It is due
to a difference in the way that UNIX file systems and NTFS update
timestamps when a file is modified. We are working on it.

Subject: Re: [storage-discuss] how to prevent that two clients open the
samedocument
Hi There,
We're running the latest OpenSolaris version with the
build-in CIFS service.
We experienced the problem that some users were
opening the same Excel document at the same time. One
was using MS Excel, the other one OpenOffice. This
happend by accident. At the end, both weren't able to
save it.
What can I do to prevent that this happens again?
Before, when the majority was using MS Excel, this
problem never occured, instead the user got an error
message, that informed her/him, that the document was
already in use and it opened in read-only mode.
thanks alot!
The only thing that comes to mind is putting your files under source
control.
Mercurial should be part of your OpenSolaris distribution.
regards
