Hi, I have a question about fork mecanism of smbd process. I'm using samba 1.9.18 and it appears that smbd daemon forks a new process not only for each client (in my mind, a client is a machine) but for each connected user, even if they are logged on the same client. In version 2.0.6 I'm testing, it 's different : smbd daemon forks new process for each client. BUT, all users on a same client share the same smbd process (whose uid change) when they connect to samba. Is this new behaviour normal ?
