Windows 2000 network & Mac OS 10.3.9

Hello,



Our IT guy keeps complaining that people are leaving files open on the Windows 2000 server when it needs a reboot. There is only 1 Mac at work. I looked at the server and it does show many files open in "Read" status. There are not any open files on the Mac, but these files were worked on earlier. Since the file is only open as "Read" (and not Read/Write) I assume the files would not be corrupted from a reboot.



Is this a known phenom? I'd love to provide a link that this is normal or how to address.

Thanks

    Maybe it's just that most people here are running 10.4.x, and left 10.3.9 behind a long time ago? Not that there aren't plenty of people still running Panther out in the world at large, but the kind of Mac users who spend a lot of time here are also the kind who mostly move to the latest Mac OS right away.

    OK... thanks for the response. It may be more of a windows question.
