Hi, 
 
Please try a newer version of libsmbclient. I think I've fixed this
about a 
year ago ;)

Tom,

I am running the current version of libsmbclient, but am seeing this
same issue. Is there any fix other than just restarting the process
using the library?

Here are the samba RPMs I have install on my RHE3 system.

[root at ent3ws log]# rpm -qa|grep samba

samba3-client-3.0.28-35

samba3-3.0.28-35

[root at ent3ws log]#

Thanks,

Rob
