I have executed ./configure --with-lockdir=/var/lock/samba and get a proper Makefile with LOCKDIR = /var/lock/samba The trouble is strings ./usr/sbin/smbd | grep /var/lock reports /var/lock not the expected /var/lock/samba! There are no entries for "lock dir" or "lock directory" in smb.conf, and true to fashion testparm -s | grep "lock dir" reports lock dir = /var/lock ?! How come !? For the record, the full configure command is: ./configure \ --with-fhs \ --prefix=/usr \ --localstatedir=/var \ --bindir=/usr/bin \ --sbindir=/usr/sbin \ --sysconfdir=/etc \ --with-configdir=/etc/samba \ --with-privatedir=/etc/samba/private \ --with-codepagedir=/etc/codepages \ --with-lockdir=/var/lock/samba \ --with-smbmount \ --with-quotas \ --with-syslog \ --with-utmp \ --with-netatalk \ --with-sambabook=/usr/share/swat/using_samba \ --with-ssl \ --with-sslinc=/usr/include/openssl \ --with-msdfs \ --with-vfs \ i386-slackware-linux Other than the above problem, everything works as advertised!

How come !?I noticed that - we seem to have all the configure magic, but don't actually use it...
