Description aziem 2006-09-30 19:42:21 UTC

If Samba clients running Windows and OpenOffice.org 2.0.3 open the same document
through two different Linux Samba servers connected by NFS, then the application
instance with the lock goes into an error state where the document is saved as 0
bytes.  This part is interesting: Also, any document saved with any file name in
the same directory will also have 0 bytes until the test document is closed.

While file locking may have other issues, this issue focuses on the data loss
aspect.

Attached please find a detailed report.

Is this issue also valuable with an actual version?

therefore we need a step-by-step description

[checking some file locking issues]
@aziem: do you know if this issue is still valid?
If not, we can close this issue.
