[Samba] Windows XP SP2 and Samba

I just upgraded to Windows XP SP2 and now I am having problems :(

I have Fedora Core 2 with the latest updates installed.  The Samba 
version is 3.0.3-5 of the RPM.

The problem I am having is using Azureus and the Samba share.  Before 
SP2 everything worked fine.

Now I am getting messages like this:

--------------------------------------
The semaphore timeout period has expired (dumpBlockToDisk) when 
processing file 'blah'.

Error: The specified network name is no longer available.

-----------------------------------------------------

When I save to a local drive I have no problems.

If I save to the Samba server then after a while.  It can be a long time 
or a short time.  I think it depends on how fast I am receiving the data 
then I get the error.

Any ideas?  Anyone else having this issue?

John
