Saving Office 2007 files on NetWare server

S

Sayan

When editing documents in Excel 2007 and Word 2007, located on the server
NetWare 4.11, each time saving manually or closure with saving appear files
such E6FEB104.tmp (to the point of random from 8 letters and numbers) in the
same folder and about equal size of document file.
And, during the same session connection to the NetWare server these tmp
files can not be deleted.

What could be the reason for my problem?

WinXPSP2, NovellClient4.83SP3
There is also a KAV 7, but his disabling, it does not solve the problem.

In the same conditions, but with Office 2003, is working well.
In the same conditions, but with the MS client for NetWare, is normal

Found it!!!!!

Ok, so I did a live search when my user was having problems and I had
them open up a random document that they knew was there but wasn't
being shown. For example, they went to start, then run then went to X:
\user\knowndocument.doc

It would open up the document like normal, however, I saw that office
2007 was trying to save it in a file name that already existed. So I
moved the existing file over to another folder, then rebooted the
samba service, and moved the file back. It worked perfectly. It was
a file with all caps as a side note. Don't know if that'll help you,
but it worked for me.

Unfortunately, I have not yet found a solution to my problem.
Now using the Microsoft client for NetWare, but that does not support the
enhanced NetWare (Novell utilities do not work).
