samba - Oct 2005 - "Access denied" errors with version 3.0.20

Samba version 3.0.20 running on FreeBSD 5.4-Stable.

Certain users on certain machines are losing access to my
fileserver--one moment things are working and the next, they don't
work.  I can't figure out how to regain connectivity for those users
on those workstations (running Win XP Pro).

Please help!

At about 08:15 on 3 Oct 2005 I was able to save a log file of the
problem in action.  Level 10 log file can be found at
http://www.smartrafficenter.org/kevin/log.10.5.51.27, smb.conf posted
below.

Thanks,
Kevin

I had a similar problem with win XP pro. How many network interfaces are 
working on your server? If ther is more than one WinXP clients seems get 
stucked.

I solved deactivating the eth1 interface and rebooting both clients and 
server. I'm running SAmba 3.0.16a
