I have a similar problem that when I copy a file from my Solaris 8 box to a Win NT 4.0 share, the first time I try, it appends some garbage characters to the end of the file (text files in my case). However, the second attempt copying the same file works fine as do subsequent attempts. If I then stop copying files for an hour or so and try again, same problem. This started for me in v2.4 and continues in v2.6. I've got around it by copying each file twice! I only use sharity to copy a few text files from one machine to another daily (scripted).
