We have also had the same problem - very strange. Our situation was sharing
CDs in a CD tower - I changed four of the CDs, deleted the old shares and
created new ones for the four new CDs, and everything stopped. RPC errors
when browsing from NT only. Direct maps were OK, as was any form of access
from Win98. Since I'm the only one with win98 (on a notebook), and everyone
else has NT, this was a major problem :)
We got around it in the end by removing one of the new CD shares, which made
it work. When we added the share back in, it stopped again. So we added
another disk share, and it worked again. Bizarre. I have to say this
sounds like a Samba bug...
