[Samba] hundreds of 'smb -D' processes

[Patrick Rynhart]

Hi Mike,

I've encountered this one too.  The solution was to add an smbd
deadtime. As I understand the issue, XP and Samba don't always agree
when an SMB session should be closed.

Try adding:

deadtime = 60

which means "If I don't hear from a client within 60 minutes, assume
that the connection is dead and close the smbd process".

Also see my bug report at https://bugzilla.samba.org/show_bug.cgi?id=4470
