Hello,
I have same setup here; all the CAD standards and profiles are loaded in to AutoCAD using SAMBA shares, CAD project files are also accessed from SAMBA shares. This generates very heavy traffic over network and this is I/O bound operation; you should have sufficient RAM at both server and client side. Your AutoCAD should be update with all service packs and CAD fixes released by Autodesk. The problem you are talking about should be related to AutoCAD or possibly some network issues and not with SAMBA; as this happens when user executes certain command. Make sure that AutoCAD is configured properly in case you are using some CAD standards/customizations and file paths should not be missing.
Interesting. I had a complaint today about AutoCAD being slow to access files. Once in a while users see very slow access when accessing files from the server. Apparently this is particular to AutoCAD.

I am waiting on more information, so that's all I know at this point.

Hi,

I have some problem with a network that use Samba as the main FileServer. All client are Windows XP and are identical in almost every point of view.

User complain of several crash of AutoCad that happen during the day for no special reason. It usually happen when the user execute a command.

The problem it's self it's not really important, I just want to know if any body complain about similar problem with AutoCad+Samba. If it's not the case, I will not care about the server and take a further look to other network component.

Thanks for your help
