I'm sorry to say this is starting to look a like a compatibility issue with
FreeBSD and samba.  Many people have stated that they have the same problem,
but no one has been able to provide any solutions.  I've been having this
trouble since I installed 3.2, and have asked a couple times.  Unfortunately
I still have the problem as well.

If anyone comes up with a solution to this, I beg of you, please let me know
what the solution is too.

Thanks,
-Chris
