Not expecting much from this but i figured i'd throw it out there to see if anyone else has seen it.

I have a Windows 7 machine on my test network here whenever i attempt to connect to a linux based file server on the network it kills samba on the server. The steps go like this:
Start
-search programs....
\\server.domain.com or \\xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx (IP address fo server)
-Windows 7 can't find server error (even if i run the repair)
Immediately afterwards the samba service on the file server crashes and is non-responsive to other computers on the test network.
My Vista machines don't have this issue.

Anyone else seen this? If not then keep your eyes open if you run into a similar issue.
