[Samba] Windows XP refresh Problem

[Aaron Kincer]

Like I said, Microsoft "fixed" an identical sounding problem in support 
article 823291. This fix was added to XP SP2. Hint: This code change 
wasn't added to Windows 2000.

So based on the evidence at hand, the problem seems to have been caused 
by Microsoft.
