[Samba] Connectivity issues

[mjb at SRINC.biz]

I've tried both the onboard and a linksys.. I also ran iperf to test the 
connectivity and bandwidth, ping, and ftp.. all worked fine.. no packet 
loss.. I'm also connected to it constantly via ssh without ever being 
disconnected or lagged.  The interface reports no errors or dropped 
packets..

Sounds like something at  the physical layer.  Try a different NIC on
the server.  Run some network diagnostics.
