Hi

I've set up a Debian machine with Samba 3.5.6, acting as a stand-alone server (NAS). I have a Windows Vista client participating in a company domain, but the client should have access to the Samba (which is not on the domain).

I can connect from the Windows client to the Samba server using the servers IP-address.
I can immediately browse around, open and creating files and directories.
Then after a minute or so, Windows cannot use or reconnect to the share anymore... I have to delete the connection "net use z: /delete" and then make a new connection.

/etc/samba/smb.conf:
---
[global]
    workgroup = XYZ
    netbios name = XYZ-NAS
    server string = %h server (Samba %v)
    log file = /var/log/samba/log.%m
    max log size = 1000
    syslog = 0
    encrypt passwords = yes
[data]
    comment = Our data
    path = /data/
    browseable = yes
    writable = yes
    valid users = abc
    public = no
---

Any suggestion as to what I am doing wrong?

What I really want to achieve; is to have my own little NAS attached physically to the company network, but not in any way participating in, or disturbing that network - I do not want to anger the IT department.
Only one user should get access to the NAS.

I hope someone can help me out...
