I have samba up and running on an AIX 5.3 server. Has been working for a year. Yesterday, users started getting a windows dialogue message "specified network name is no longer available". No changes to the Unix server have been made. In my logs I get the following when a user attempts to connect: [2009/01/16 09:30:25, 2] smbd/sesssetup.c:setup_new_vc_session(602) setup_new_vc_session: New VC == 0, if NT4.x compatible we would close all old resources.
