I have solved the problem.
It turned out to be a autosensing hub/switch thinking a nic card was 
half duplex, when the nic card was set to full duplex.
When I forced the nic card to half duplex, everything worked.

I still think there is a problem with samba or the linux kernel, because 
with the nic card set wrongly on thw windows 2000 machine, thus causing 
lots of lost packets, I was able to transfer files easily between 
windows machines, all be it slowly. It was only the windows 2000 to 
samba that failed. When I get a moment, I will look into the problem 
further.
