Chris: First of all let me say that your implementation of Samba is orders of magnitude above mine, however I have seen some problems similar to yours. I second the advice about the WINS server. When I have not had this set up properly (or nmbd has died for some reason) I see all kinds of odd browsing problems including slow browsing, things coming in and out of the browse list with no explanation, etc. In addition I thought I'd add that when I added a VPN link to my network to tie in other off-site offices, this noticeably slowed down the browsing for local clients. This is because they are hitting that VPN link (because they have a drive mapped there) and thus it takes time to travel out and back over the link. Granted none of this addresses your file corruption issues, but I thought it might help for the future.
Browsing is generally what generates all my questions from users :) Good Luck - and don't give up! James James W. Beauchamp, P.E. 2121 Newmarket Pkwy.
