Is this with one Windows 7 X64 client or all of them?
Do XP machines have the same problem?
Do the disconnects occur after the machine has been in sleep mode?

Hello all!
I am having severe problems with my Samba PDC.
1. My Roaming profile in 3 out of 10 times does not get synchronized
correctly with the server - without any obvious reason. This sometimes
destroys my profile by losing data and commonly from then on the
profile is never again synchronized correctly. A backup restore of the
computer is necessary.
2. When I edit a document (e.g. word .docx) which is located on a
samba-share, sometimes when I want to save it to a new (!) file name,
Word says that it can't save to the new file name "because the
document is in use by someone else". Word creates the new file name
anyway, but it remains 0kb. When I select "save" again and chose to
overwrite the new 0kb file, it does it without any problem.
3. Sometimes the connection to the PDC get's lost in the middle of a
day's session. Thus all my network drives get disconnected and I have
to reboot the client to get connected again. If in this time I had
Outlook 2007 opened (my outlook.pst lives on a network share, too), I
have to close Outlook and reboot to be able to edit anything in
Outlook again.
What I have tried:
1. Changed TP-Cable between client and server
2. Changed Network Switch between client and server (and switched from
100MBit to Gigabit)
3. Upgraded Samba to the (then) newest version, which was 1 year newer
than the previous one
4. Re-added the client to the domain
Nothing helped... ;-(
What is going on here?
The client that connects to the PDC is Windows 7, 64bit
ANY ideas, hints, approaches are HIGHLY APPRECIATED!!
