Samba, vfat and new kernels: strange problem

I used to share a vfat mounted partition with other collegues through samba. 
Everything works fine with kernel 2.2.18. With new kernels (2.4.3) I have 
problems in copying large files. Windows 98 clients returns me a message
saying I have no access rigths to perform the operation. Everything
works fine if:
- files are small (lessa than 100k)
- or I use a windows 2k client
- or the samba share is on a ext2 partition
