	As a side note, you _really_ should install a newer
version of Samba, the last stable release is 3.0.23d.

	If you are talking about samba then, no, definetely you
don't have the latest version. Could you please post your
smb.conf so the list can take a look at it?

	Good tips would include to check the oplocks and the
socket options.
