Your OS is EOL, as is your Samba version, if this is a bug, your

I have no idea, I do not know what is in the 'hot folder' because you
haven't posted the '[hot folder]' share.

If they are, then the problem could be a firewall problem, if they
aren't, then it could just be down to your outdated computers.
