Strange. I run a schoolserver (http://arktur.de) on many machines, in many schools without these problems. The servers use slackware - that's the only difference to your configuration; Samba has versions from 3.0.22 to 3.2.3 (that differs from school to school), there are at least two schools which run a Compaq Proliant. Clients: from Windows 9x to Windows XP. No such problems. Can you see the files under Linux on the server? Viele Gruesse!
