Paul,
Interesting:

I'm not seeing that error on either the client (4.19) or server (neither 4.11 nor 4.19). Using log level = 8 on both. All I see on the client side (both 4.11 and 4.19 server) is many dozens of:

cli_status_to_errno: 0xc0000034 -> 2
On the server side, the logged errors I see are:

There were many multiples of each of the above - only one shown.
** Indicate errors seen with both the 4.11 and 4.19 server. The last three are only seen with the 4.19 server.
One thing I have noticed - I have 'max log size = 2048' in the server smb.conf, but it seems to be ignored because I get logs over 10MB all the time, especially with log level = 8. Maybe a bug?
Thinking out loud:
wins.dat does exist in the C:\MPTN\ETC\samba\lock directory - maybe the server is looking in the wrong place?
nmbd.pid is deleted when the server is stopped - maybe that error comes after it has been deleted?
The 'attribute not found' might be because I have EA's turned off with SET LIBC_UNIX_EAS= on the shared drive?
The name of the computer at 192.168.21.2 is MAINMACHINE. IBMPEERS is the workgroup. Maybe some kind of confusion?
