It works as expected if the file is on an NFS share. If the file is open, subsequent clicks give a read only copy and you can see the dot file created as a lock.
The NFS export you have mounted. Right?
Can you please answer the question? Else I'll stop asking further.
Yes, the nfs export is mounted on a client. But the problem isn't with nfs. I mentioned this to compare it to samba.

comment = Shared stuff path = /home/stuff force group = users create mask = 0660 force create mode = 0660 security mask = 0770 directory mask = 0770 force directory mode = 0770 directory security mask = 0770 read only = No
Doesn't Samba use cifs when accessing the share anyway?
No.
Please try to keep it simple and stupid (KISS) and quote only needed parts of a mail and nothing further.
Thanks.
PS while reading all the mask and mode setting from the share I spontaneously got zits.
I got the share syntax as an off list reply to another question I posted yesterday, having tried simpler code myself. The share does what I want. Apart from creating openoffice lock files. smbd is not running on the client. Thanks.
