Changing lock directory fixed it.  Bug closed.

Strange - I have been running that same version of smb.conf (attached) 
since 8.04 without issue but it was originally imported from a Solaris 
system which had a manually-configured Samba build (3.0 I think).

Thanks, Thierry and happy Christmas!

Best regards,
Aidan
