[Samba] "getpeername failed. Error was Transport endpoint is not connected"

[Ed Kasky]

I went around and around with this issue for months replacing cables, 
switches and nics on a couple of machines all to no avail.   I played 
around with something I found in the archives:

http://lists.samba.org/archive/samba/2004-April/084048.html

Using iptables to drop port 445, I eliminated the errors.  I have not seen 
the error return nor experienced any other negative impact on performance.
