I have a similar setup but never use a Linux graphical file browser.  I
have never seen that error when accessing via console either like you
reported.  

I have about 20 shares permanently mounted on my Debian box (2.4.25)
from various NT4 boxes both local, and at the end of WAN links ranging
down to the low teens of kbps, and the only things I ever see are these:

Apr 13 12:09:24 wind-tunnel kernel: smb_trans2_request: result=-104,
setting invalid
Apr 13 12:09:25 wind-tunnel kernel: smb_retry: successful, new pid=211,
generation=111
Apr 13 12:30:04 wind-tunnel kernel: smb_trans2_request: result=-104,
setting invalid
Apr 13 12:30:06 wind-tunnel kernel: smb_retry: successful, new pid=205,
generation=128

Some kind of timeout? Dunno, it doesn't break anything and I ignore
them.

I'm slowly converting most of them over to automounts, so that gets rid
of some of the above errors too.  Cleaner logs for me, yay!

Sorry I haven't seen your particular problem though :|
