Amy,

	I believe that the first thing to do would be to upgrade to the latest   
Samba release. That alone could take care of your problem. In my perusing   
of the mailing list, I have seen many posts relating to issues with   
Windows 2000 prior to the Samba 2.2.5-10 release that I have installed as   
a PDC at our offices here.

	Perhaps those issues were resolved with configuration changes. However,   
I know that I haven't experienced any of the posted issues when I went to   
install Samba as a PDC here a few weeks back.

	Hopefully, upgrading will resolve the issue for you.

	Hmm... I was just thinking... How long have you had Samba up and running   
for your systems? Did something recently change on your Windows 2000   
systems, or have they always experienced this issue? If it is only a   
recent thing, then I would recommend checking to make sure that the   
"Automatic Update" (Pisses me off to all hell) Service is not running on   
your Windows 2000 Workstations. If it is, then they might have recently   
downloaded a nice little "fix" from MS that tosses your Samba server for   
a loop. In any case, you might be able to uninstall whatever "fix" was   
recently added to the machine.

	Good luck!

I have several(about 20)win98 and (about 30) window2000 clients accessing   
a
dos application on our mandrake 8.2 samba 2.2.2 server and all of our   
win98
machines run fine with the application, but on several or most all of the
window2000 machines they get disconnected from the network when trying to
"write" to or save (within the shared application).  I realize that it is
the client disconnected rather than replying to a valid break packet, but
does anyone know why and how this can be fixed?  It freezes the 2000
machines and they need to be rebooted and of course non of the   
information
gets saved so they must start with that file all over again.  I have a   
few
unhappy people and I was wondering if anyone had any ideas?  Thank you   
very
much.
