[Samba] Error in logs, is it a bug or a misconfiguration?

[Matthew Easton]

I have a samba installation that's been running since 1997 or so.  
Over that time we've upgraded samba a few times, upgraded hardware,  
and changed operating systems from RHEL to Fedora Core 6.  The Fedora  
Core 6 migration happened a couple of weeks ago, including running  
samba from RPM available from 'yum update', and things seemed to be  
going OK, but today I see some ominous messages.

So this is:

Fedora Core 6 with recent updates
smbd -V reports: Version 3.0.24-5.fc6

I'll be happy to provide samba.conf file, or whatever, but maybe it's  
unnecessary.  Have I bumped into a bug in the samba code?

First of all I get a lot of these:

And then this fun stuff:

I restarted samba, and it's not complaining now-- but it's the  
weekend so I don't expect to see much traffic until Monday.

Thanks
