This is really wild guess but could your mdb have an associated ADS file, that will be copied along with your main file on NTFS to NTFS file transfer, I have seen DocumentSummaryInfo ADS files attached to mdb's This ADS might be held open by someone else or another program. I have noticed popup windows concerning these little critters when copying hundreds of mdb's to another hard drive recently. Saying something like this documentinfo ADS will be lost. A quick way to strip these ADS is to copy the file to a FAT disk like a CD. Then copy from the CD to the server. I'll assume the .ldb file on the server is deleted.
