Samba Crashing with Network use.

[Kasperpa]

Hey guys, (New to the forum)

I am running RedHat 9, Kernel 2.4.20-8, Samba 3.0.7-1

Samba shares work fine, from all my client machines.. (IE: I can find them and map and view)

Transferring files, working directly off the share drive crashes the server, now it will work for a few times , minutes, then crash. I have to manually reboot the server. I have chanegd out the NIC, Cable, switched ports on switch, and upgraded to the 3.0.7-1 samba.

Can anyone help? pls

My smb.conf:
