I have testing debian with samba and while the linux server is on the network the other systems on the network lock up and freeze for several minutes then un freeze. After I remove the debian box from the network it does not freeze any of the other computers on the network. Any help would be appreciated.

You don?t tell us anything about versions, configs, parameters ..... For example, is Samba PDC, BDC, stand-alone, Master Browser, ..... ? This group is able to give vast amounts of useful information on all kinds of Samba-issues if it is only given enough information about your situation. -- best regards, Stefan G.

My server is a pdc on debian linux and is running with a windows 2000 member server that is hosting software for a flower shop. The windows servers and all the workstations are freezing about twice an hour and stay froze for about 2-5 minutes. They do not lock up at the same time but usually after the windows server locks they lock because they are trying to gather data from this flower software. If I remove the network cable from the debian pdc it does not lock up any more. The windows server and workstations have been there for at least a year and the debian box was just introduced then they started having the problems. I replaced the network card after letting the two servers ping back and forth and there were errors, after I replaced the network card in the debian machine there were no more errors but the windows box still locks up.
