4 already looks suspicious, you should get 10 or more.

Any > other suggestions? No, I don't think this is an application issue. Try cutting out the apps from the diagnosis by reproducing the error by simple file copying. Try running gkrellm or a similar monitor on side to your apps and watch the network traffic. You'll find that when the outages happen the network traffic will break down. Or if not, it will be from a different machine congesting your connection to your samba server. It could be a simple as a dying hdd timing out your read request, so check the logs on the server, too. -- Axel.Thimm at ATrpms.net
