[Samba] Connection dropped when copying large files to a Samba Server

[Srini]

If you are using a DHCP based IP address assignment, this could happen if
the DHCP client (Samba client) ise getting its IP address renewed in the
timeframe before the file transfer is complete. If this is indeed your
scenario, try increasing the DHCP IP Address lease duration in the
client/server.
