Open files on Windows 2003 Server

We run a mixed environment of PCs (win XP) and Macs (running both OS 9 and OS
X). What we have noticed lately is a large number of files are being
displayed as "Open Files" under Computer Management>File Sharing, though the
OS X users have closed the actual files. You can see who has what files open
from the same window so no third party product is required to view these
details.

Is there away to ensure a Win 2003 server will close files once a user
closes the file or a setting change that will shorten the time that a server
keeps the file open - say to 12 hours and then automatically disconnects the
opened file? I've looked through the MS website without much success so any
ideas or thoughts would be appreciated.

Is it actually causing a "real" problem?
