SMBClient & Windows 2000

Samba 2.0.7 running on Compaq AlphaServer Tru64. Using smbclient to get
files from a Windows 2000 Server. Nearly always we get a non-specific
error code, sample below. When it does fail, it fails consistently. In
the example below, whenever this particular get fails, it always fails
at exactly the same point. The same is the case with other files and it
doesn't seem to matter about the file size, it's not just large files
that are failing.

Has anyone come across this before?

Regards,

Brian Sheldon
