samba - Dec 2002 - XP keeps disconnecting

Maybe this has been asked many times, but I could
not find it in the list archive (in this case could
someone please address me to the right thread?)

I've an XP professional client (SP1) connected to a 2.2.7a samba
server running on a redhat 6.2 box (kernel 2.2.22). 

I can log on and access samba shares, but the XP box keeps
losing these connections. Log file just tell me that:

  [2002/12/26 16:49:22, 2] smbd/server.c:exit_server(461)
    Closing connections
  [2002/12/26 16:49:22, 1] smbd/service.c:close_cnum(677)
    jose (192.168.1.100) closed connection to service omnia

When the connection is lost it takes a while to reconnect
(10/20 seconds).

Maybe this is an XP  and not a Samba problem? Can anybody tell
me what can I do?

This is my "global" configuration section

[global]
  workgroup = MACONDO
  netbios name = SUPERPIPPO
  server string = Samba v%v (Logon Server)
  interfaces = eth0
  log level = 2
  log file = /var/log/samba/log.%m

I've never used this option before, but isn't Samba doing just what
you're
telling it to do?

A level 5 or 10 log may be helpful, in finding out whats' going on when the
connection is terminated.
