Mite it not be read write prioritsation to stations thats causing these 
errors?

as I remember k3b caches the cd to the swap, so if your trying to remotly 
access it, it mite be either trying to cache the cd to the network (hence 
the auth problems) or perhaps just a bad read write error message? if its 
not queing the jobs up in the right order?
