connect /disconnect XP client

[b_plancoulaine at iutcaen.unicaen.fr]

Hello, 

We carried out a migration towards Linux - Debian (Testing) with a kernel 2.4
and a samba 3.0.14a.  For a very long time, we use the samba software and we had
not encountered this problem :  

When several customers Windows XP connect themselves or disconnect themselves at
the same time with the SAMBA server,the demon smbd does not answer any more or
becomes very slow. The users have profiles which are in shareable directory on
the same server.

Have you had this problem ?

Thank you for your assistance,

Benoît PLANCOULAINE
