[Samba] extremely high %CPU and TIME

[Tom Ryan]

Looking around on the net, I saw that someone else had a similar issue 
when they were running all of their users behind terminal server. Our 
users are all behind two NAT'd firewalls.

Is it possible that there is some confusion going on? should I stop the 
service and remove locking.tdb? (that's what 14 references right?)

Thanks.
