drivetrain question

Today I was out fooling around with my front rotors and couldn't get them off. As I was beating and spinning the rotors, I noticed the front driveshaft from transfer case to front diff was spinning along with wheel. Does this mean the 4WD is still locked in? If so, what could be the cause of this? Also what are some possible fixes.

if the driveshaft was spinning with the tires sounds more like the hubs arent disengaged if it was in 4wd and the hubs were disengaged then you wouldnt be able to tell by spinning the tires but if the hubs were engaged you wouldnt be able to spin the tires at all since the tcase would be in gear
