Samba + OO, makes me think you are network browsing, and trying to open a file over the network in OO, yes? It is probably considered streaming...and most likely even if it would open, you certainly wouldn't have write access to those files. You need to mount the folders your are browsing to in Samba as drives, like mapping in Windows. Then you should be set.
Ok, I finally got it to mount, and you were right. It was the "Streaming" that caused it not to open unless mounted. For mounting I did:
smbmount \\\\WinServName\\Share /MountPoint -o username=username,workgroup=DomainName (It didn't take the Default Domain name I entered in YaST).
So is there a way you can map to the \ level of the server so it shows all drives? I tried mounting it as \\\\WinServName\\ and that said invalid share.
