As a last resort, try raising the value of 'log level' in smb.conf and having a
look at the logs under /var/log/samba

Don't raise the value too much, though ... a log level of 9 spews vast amounts
of debugging information into the logfiles, making them pretty much impossible
to get any useful information out of.
