Jim, the network trace doesn't show any AAAA DNS record lookups while this occurs. However, I was surprised to find empty log files that look like "log.__ffff_192.168.0.48". What causes this?

Chris, you are onto something here (mentioning the NIC). I haven't gone back to prove this 100%, but the multiple 20 second delay problem has gone away. It went away when I connected the ethernet cable to a temporarily unused NIC. Specifically, I have 3 ethernet cards. The PC's having the 20x delay were on eth1. The NIC eth0 wasn't used for Samba at all. NIC eth2 didn't have a cat5 connected, but was configured with a static IP. It appears the 20x delay went away when I connected an ethernet cable to eth2.

This doesn't make any sense to me, however, as samba wasn't configured to use eth2 at all.

Make any sense?

Thanks Jeremy.  No Ipv6 enabled.  This problem even occurs if I use
"\\192.168.0.254" (IP of my samba server) rather than a netbios name. I'm
not running a local DNS server.
You don't necessarily have to have IPv6 enabled to have your DNS doing
AAAA lookups.  I would check the traffic to be sure.
