Network disconnect

Server:
Suse 9.1
Samba 3.0.9-2.6 i586

Clients:
Win XP SP2 + sämtl. Patches

My server and clients are running 24h/7d. Normaly no problem. But
sometimes when i work first time a day i cannot print over my Linux Cups
server or i cannot use my CD-Image. So i have to restart the CUPS server
or reconnect the CD-Image.

I have 2 Server. The first is only for data the second only for
printing. The second is installed realy new with SuSe Linux 9.2 and i
use only Samba so i can connect to it with
//printserver:631/printers/deskjet970c on my Win XP client.


Any Hints?

What does /var/log/messages tell you? What does 'CD-Image' mean? Are you
exporting your CD-drive via SMB or are you using a CD-image via
loopback-mechanisms?

/var/log/messages (or the appropriate log-file of your samba server) can
answer that. It would be helpful to post it here the next time the error
occurs.
