Drive already connected Error in Windows 2000

The W2K client systems may be at different service pack levels: most are
probably at 2 or 3.
Samba 2.2.7 is running on HP-UX 11.

The last entries in the log.smbd before this happens are:

There is nothing strictly reproducible as it seems like a random thing!

(please reply to list)

Some standard questions...

What service pack level for W2K?
What operating system are you running under samba 2.2.7?
Do you have a reproducible test case you can post?
Anything out of the ordinary in your smb.conf file?

Sounds like an operating system resource-limit issue...
