Samba creating odd temporary files

Suggest you backup smb.conf first so you can retrieve the situation if it blows up. Then try this:

[network]
comment = NetworkShare
#inherit acls = Yes
force user = root
path = /network/
read only = No
guest ok = yes

Forcing root is a diagnostic thing (temporary). If it improves, we would change that, but use it to see if it does improve. And clean our the temp files and see if they then correct themselves.

and this, assuming that you don’t want Suse to be a domain controller (don’t change it if I assume wrongly):

[global]
workgroup = MSHOME
name resolve order = bcast host lmhosts wins
printing = cups
printcap name = cups
printcap cache time = 750
cups options = raw
map to guest = Bad User
usershare allow guests = No
security = user
netbios name = DevilsBackBone
passdb backend = smbpasswd:/etc/samba/smbpasswd
local master = Yes
os level = 65
preferred master = Yes
