[Samba] Samba & Ghost BackUp Problem

Have two XP laptops that I am trying to get to back up to a Samba share
with Norton Ghost 2003.  My laptop is "gtwylptp" and my son's, a Dell
8600 with a broadcom 440x NIC, is "stu07-53".  

I am the user and group backing up both machines.  "gtwylptp" backs up
without a problem however "stu07-53" hangs as apparently the Lock file
has "RDONLY" access and the Ghost (DOS) application times out.

My hosts.allow and hosts.deny are untouched.

I have no problem writing to the share from "stu07-53" from any WinXP
application.  And the XP side of Ghost writes some sort of file prior to
rebooting the machine and launching the DOS application and proceeding to 
time out.  Obviously the XP and DOS parts of the Ghost application use XP 
and DOS specific broadcom 44x driver


Troubleshooting direction appreciated.

thanks
