Is the SCO machine still answering "pings"? Are there other services
than "samba" (e.g. "ftp", "telnet",...) running on this machine? Are
they running well?

Is "nmbd" also running? Perhaps you find further information within
"log.nmb".

This is not an error. It is an information message only and I am quite
sure that it is not related to your problem. I have a similar message
("..., 1014 are available") in the log files of my Linux/samba servers
and they run quite well. ;-)
