Do you have "security = domain"?  Did you join teh Samba box to the 
domain using smbpasswd?  Please supply a copy of your smb.conf.
Send it to me off list if you want.

You are dealing with a different network protocol and different network 
clients.  It is possible that a misformatted response could cause client 
crashes (like explorer.exe or spoolss.exe), but you are going to have to 
be more specific here.  

I will say that there are no known issues of clients crashing due to 
the Samba release.

No.  Samba on apprpriate hardware can handle much more than that :-)
