Problem Description: 

4258929: memory leak found in netbios driver

NetBIOS is holding on to streams_dblk_72 and streams_dblk_1992 byte frames. 
These dblks are used by NetBIOS to put and get data from the tcp layer and 
could be a possible memory leak. 

4280834: Netbios panics with multiple network interfaces

Systems with multiple network interfaces are prone to system panics which
are caused by the Netbios driver.  These panics are most likely to occur
on unreliable networks where the WINS server becomes inaccessible.
