Samba Daemon dying

[Warren Togami]

What version of Samba are you running?  Newer versions probably fix
potential problems that may have been introduced with Windows XP.  The
latest release is Samba 2.2.1.

Go to this URL, select your operating system, and follow their directions in
building and installing the source RPM.
