Hmmn, people seem to be reporting that a lot these days...
Normally it indicates one of
- an error on the client
- the client timing out
- an error seen by the client
One commentator had a bad hub, another only saw
it on a particular machine, others didn'd see
anything unique that might cause it...
Can you look at your net with a snooper (eg, etherial,
tcpdump) and look for suspicious packets just before the
disconnection? The chap with the bad hub was seeing (if
memory serves) truncated packets.
| [timestamp]PAM_pwdb: (login) authentication failure;
(uid 0) -> compta for samba service
This look like a normal failure reported by the pam module
