I have a network that has XP and Vista on it. If any of the vista machines
try and open a file that is already opened on another machine vista hangs
until the file has been closed. If an XP machine tries to open a file
already open on another machine you see the dialog box "the already open do
you want top open as read only".

What could be causing this?
