Hi
I have Win2k servers connecting to the samba server by mapping a windows
user to unix user.
We never had any problems with thsi connectivity but for past 2 weeks we
have an erratic problem which causes the windows account to lock thus
making samba unfunctional. When I get the windows account unlocked then
samba starts functioning properly again.
I do not have a scenario to reproduce the problem and it appears once in 2
days or sometimes thrice in a day. This architecture was working for past
2 years without problems.
When the error comes samba logs the following:

Thanks in advance...
