[Samba] Too many processes kills server

[Paul Harlow]

Yes I can. It's been running without much of any problem this morning. I
will try that when it fails again. Not sure what else to do though. I was
going to try another version via the RPM that comes with RHL 7.3 but it's
got some other dependencies such as "CUPS" that needs to be installed and
I'm not sure what, if anything, CUPS will do on this 7.2 system.

What do you see with:
smbstatus 
Can you see what process or application on the client machines are running
all these smbd's?
