[Samba] samba woes

After I installed samba-2.2.3a, I was able to access my files and other
users had the same success, but on Monday I am not able to get all the users
to map their folders to Windows boxes. After a certain amount of users are
using Samba, the rest are not able to use it. I did not have this problem
when I was running Samba 2.0.7. I am using the same smb.conf as before.
    When I try to find the SMB server in network neighborhood, I get error
message saying that is not available when I try to open it. When I run
smbclient from another HP-UX 10.20 workstation, I get the following:
$ ./smbclient -L cfs-smb
INFO: Debug class all level = 3   (pid 26700 from pid 26700)
added interface ip=136.202.18.99 bcast=136.202.18.255 nmask=255.255.255.0
session request to CFS-SMB failed (code 0)
session request to *SMBSERVER failed (code 0)

At the HP-UX 10.20 server I installed Samba 2.2.3a I run smbclient and I get
this:
$ /ots/samba-2.2.3a/bin/smbclient -L localhost
added interface ip=136.202.18.25 bcast=136.202.18.255 nmask=255.255.255.0
added interface ip=136.202.44.6 bcast=136.202.44.255 nmask=255.255.255.0
added interface ip=136.202.34.6 bcast=136.202.34.255 nmask=255.255.255.0
added interface ip=136.202.28.102 bcast=136.202.28.255 nmask=255.255.255.0
read_socket_with_timeout: timeout read. read error = Connection reset by
peer.
session request to LOCALHOST failed (SUCCESS - 0)
read_socket_with_timeout: timeout read. read error = Connection reset by
peer.
session request to *SMBSERVER failed (SUCCESS - 0)
 
log.smbd has the following entry everytime some one tries to login:
 
[2002/03/05 11:19:13, 0] printing/nt_printing.c:nt_printing_init(260)
  nt_printing_init: Failed to open nt forms database
/var/adm/samba/var/locks/nt
forms.tdb (No locks available)

Any help will be appreciated. Thanks,
