samba - Jul 2002 - RE: Problems deleting files from Server, Please reply

It could be the server thinks you're still connected, and is keeping those
files locked until the connection times out.  You could try experimenting
with the 'deadtime' parameter in smb.conf.  The smb.conf manpage
explains
it.

Dear Sirs,
 
We are running a Linux server with Samba and windows-pc's
When connecting a laptop through a mobile phone (via a router) and sending
small datafiles 
to the server we get an error when we want to delete these files of the
server
the server comes with the error 'still in use', but I'am sure it
isn't. Also
when the connection is finished
I can't delete the files. However when we wait for appr. half an hour we can
delete these files
 
Can you help me out?
 
Thank you in advance
