No one else is accessing it, at least would be incredibly unlikely. Here are the "permissions": \n-rw-r--r-- 1 spooler prod 335 Mar 24 14:21 run_16669.2005_21_24_14_21_04.16695.bat\n The directory itself has more open access to allow the files to be renamed in and out of it by the windows "user", but only the spooler id can open/lock it. Right now only 3 people can even drill down into that area of the system, and they are not the "type". Hey Greg: I can have fake locks set at a directory level in samba, right? Or am I forced to do it at share level? Hmmm - need to go research.

So it doesn't really matter what is actually happening on on the Linux side - just how it looks to Windows.
