[Samba] Long waiting time connecting to Samba

[Dr. Andreas J. Ness]

I run Samba 3.0.10 on a RedHat 9.0 with the 2.4.20-8 kernel.
Samba is the PDC and Wins server.

When opening a share all users have to wait several seconds (15 to 20) until
the share opens.

Then it works fast for some time.

The same wating time can appear when saving a file from Word or other
programs to the share.

It only works fast for some time.

Can someone help me?
