	Turning the samba log level up to 3 and
	replying with a snippit of the error messages
	is the first step...

	That actually sounds like a timeout and disconnect:
	these usually are ethernet card problems!
	The best way to diagnose thes is to use
	a network capture program such as ethereal
	or snoop and capture just the session between
	the serverr and client.
