samba - Dec 2005 - Problem running .avi file over samba share

When I run an avi file from a local machine (Win XP) the file plays 
without a problem. However, when I then move the file over to our Samba 
file server the file no longer plays.

The file has the same md5 sum locally and on the file server so it would 
appear that something is changing in the file when it is cached and played.

Has anyone seen or heard of his problem?

Best,

Can you copy the file normally without problems?  It could be a
permissions issue.  How large is the AVI?  Less than 2GB?

Cheers,
