I want to known who is locking a file on a network share.
Here is the problem : the network share is on a NAS, so I can't log on. I need a tool to find out remotely who is locking the file. It is not practical to reboot the NAS every time, because there are several users.
Handle.exe, Process Explorer and PsFile seems to be limited to files on the local machine, so they don't work for me.
The sessions are handled by the NAS device. What you are asking is dependant on the NAS device and nothing to do with windows. You would have to have a look into your NAS firmware to see to what it support. The only other way is sniff the packets and work it out yourself.
Partial answer: With Process Explorer, you can view handles on a network share opened from your machine.
Use the Menu "Find Handle" and then you can type a path like this
\Device\LanmanRedirector\server\share\
sounds like you have the same problem i tried to solve here. in my case, it's a Linux fileserver (running samba, of course), so i can log in and see what process is locking the file; unfortunately, i haven't found how to close it without killing the responsible session. AFAICT, the windows client 'thinks' it's closed; but didn't bother telling the fileserver.
