We have just placed three Win2000 clients with Office 2000 Pro onto a NT4(SP6) server network. The problem is that if a spreadsheet is stored on the server it is creating a .in2 file and locking out users for editing. Any ideas please?

From the web:

?.IN2 files are created by Computer Associates Innoculan Antivirus software. You may want to check for an infection or it could be the Innoculan settings chosen to check files, especially as they open over a network connection, thatwould cause this.
Be sure to check for Innoculan updates.?

Just as a possibility, you might see if this article has anything you can use.
You might not have set up the permissions required so that the temp files can be released. This article covers the NT4 permissions required for Office97. They may or may not be pertinent.
