Permission issue? Files locking after user accesses it.
From what I am told it is only happening to excel files. User"A" can access and modify the file with no problem (it is happening to multiple files, not just one). When user "B" tries to access it, it comes back with an error that the file is in use, it can be opened in read only mode. They then log everyone off, at this point user "B" can access and modify the file.
I think they are all 2000 or XP clients running on Netware 6. They are using office 2003.
I have not seen the problem first hand, but I will tomorrow. I am thinking there may be an issue with file permissions that lock the file but do not release it for others to use until logoff.
Thanks in advance for any ideas!

Ok guys I am going to split the points. The file caching and oplocks were not enough to fix it, I had to update the novell client to 4.9. I think dawho9 was may have been right that 4.83 may have worked, and Shineon mentioned nwfs.sys. Thanks to all!
