[Samba] [Samba Version 3.0.20b-3.4-SUSE]: WinXP-Error writing to share

[Beschorner Daniel]

We have a similar or same problem with one of our servers after upgrade from
3.0.14 to 3.0.21x (incidentally??).

The log shows things like:

write_data: write failure in writing to client 192.168.17.249. Error Broken

Clients are XP x64.

When saving fails the Windows log reports "mrxsmb - delayed write failed".

I still suspect the network hardware (switch? NICs?) to do something wrong,
but can't Samba take out yet.
