[Samba] Problems with XP <-> XP shares with Linux Samba PDC 3.0.2pre1 "the system cannot find message text for message number 0x in the message file for ..."

[Lucas Young]

Hi all
I have a 5 machine network with 4 machines running XP Pro SP-1 and one (the
server) running Red Hat 9.0 with Samba 3.0.2pre1
Everything seems to run OK except when I try to connect to a shared folder
on an XP machine from another XP machine - sometimes this works, sometimes I
get "the system cannot find message text for message number 0x in the
message file for (the share name)" or "An internal Windows 2000 error
occurred". I'm about to back up my smb.conf and rpm -Uvh the latest 3.0.2rc1
(let me know if there's more involved to an upgrade than that!)
But does anyone know what this problem is and how to get around it?
FYI I have the following partitions on the server:
/mp3 (for music)
/home (holds user profiles, I have two users)
/data (for data)
/client (for client websites)
And an HP 960c printer

My log.machinename files in /var/log/samba have a lot of these errors in
them:
[2004/01/26 07:34:33, 0] smbd/service.c:make_connection_snum(627)
  Can't become connected user!

My smb.conf looks like this:

# Samba config file created using SWAT
# from 192.168.0.5 (192.168.0.5)
# Date: 2004/01/12 09:20:40

Any hints as to where I might have gone wrong, or problems with my
configuration would be greatly appreciated
