The file permission is 766 (rwxrw-rw-)
I messed a little with the persmissions, like setting the entire XSI
project to 777, but no change.
Even when setting a .lock file to 777 and even if I save a scene under
a different name, I cannot delete that file if it was created during
an XSI session that is still running. Only upon termination I can
delete lock files created during the session.
It does not happen when I save locally, only on the NAS.

My knowledge of servers, samba and all this stuff is pretty limited,
and I doubt we the expertise here to troubleshoot this problem.....
