[Samba] Samba 2.2.1a problems

Hi,
I have 5 Win98 clients connecting to a network disk.  They are running an
old DOS application that accesses a Foxpro database on that disk.  Last
week, the server was Win2k.  The Win2k box got a virus.  So this week I
changed it to SuSE 7.3 running Samba 2.2.1a.

Now various clients crash randomly, about 3-20 times per day total.  This
is causing a gradual loss in confidence in the Samba server.  There were
no crashes when the server was Win2k.

Any suggestions appreciated.  I append a section of
/var/log/samba/log.smbd and my samba.conf file.  Thanks!

By the way, no clients are printing to the box.  We thought it was
related to the printer so I moved the printer to another machine.
