You might do some checking to see if you can reproduce it yourself.  You can
create an ASCII file with all A's in it or something then copy it from the
server to a workstation repeatedly.  After each copy, run a compare and when
the compare fails use your LANalyzer to look at the packets and see if it's
happening on the wire on somewhere else.

NW 3.12 and up also has a feature called IPX checksums which is useful
for troubleshooting driver problems.  You set it in the net.cfg and with a 
SET command on the server.

Good luck...
