Re: [Samba] random errors"the local drive name is already in use. This connection has not beenrestored."

I think this is possibly a windows problem, I have had the same error in 
high usage workgroup situations with win2000. There is a relatively 
simple fix, I think if you search MS for the error message it is there.

I have had this problem unrelated to samba. I believe it is in the login
   

scripts. Perhaps you are using the "net use /persistent" switch when you do
no need to?

Hello,
I have random errors that I can not analyze nor fix:
when several users connect to the same Samba share, they get
sometimes
error messages
"the local drive name is already in use. This connection has not
been
restored", although the connection
is still usable afterwards.
