we have the problem that Microsoft Word 7.0 terminates with the
errormessage "unrecoverable diskerror". In some cases the document is
completley destroyed.
Because a lot of users are using Samba, I don't want to upgrade to the
1.9.17-Developer Version.
Does anybody have any helpful advice to avoid this.

Samba 1.9.17 is not a developer's or alpha version, it's the most stable
release of the Samba suite. You should upgrade.
