I'm running a small multiplatform network, and have had trouble with 
Samba and OS X - it's hard to keep a connection. But, I've been using 
Netatalk fine with OS X since it came out, so I haven't bothered to 
troubleshoot the samba problems. I run both netatalk and samba on the 
file server.

So - what version of netatalk are you using? Any tips that can help 
troubleshoot this problem? What version of OS X? (I've gotten 
netatalk to work with 10.0->10.2, pretty much w/o a hitch)
