So... where is the failing exactly? Windows SMB clients connecting to Windows SMB servers respect locks just fine. Windows SMB clients connecting to Linux Samba shares respect locks just fine (I've been doing this for years). Is the problem with the smbclient then?
Yes, the problem is that the smbfs Linux filesystem doesn't propagate locks. So you have to make sure that Wine is accessing the files through NFS, not through smbfs. As long as the server is a Linux machine this shouldn't be a problem.
