Tomasz,

You're way ahead of me. Already done, I should of said. No problems with 
hardware as far as I can test.

However, I've just found something. When tailing messages, the kernel 
reports a soft lockup on CPU#0, after losing the smb connection. This then 
requires a reboot, after which the kernel bug has vanished from the log!

I'm trying to reproduce error again now.

My server is a DUAL XEON 2.0Ghz, hyperthread on.

I have found https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=160805 
which is a similar problem, but mine is definately triggered by samba 
activity it seems.

Thanks for your help

Mike F
