[Samba] 3.0.5pre1 -> 3.0.5rc1 breaks winbindd group lookup with spaces
When upgrading our test system from 3.0.5pre1 to 3.0.5rc1 with identical configurations we found that one share using a group name with an embedded space was no longer accessible after the upgrade. Here's an example of the logged error message: [2004/07/13 10:50:07, 1] nsswitch/winbindd_group.c:winbindd_getgrnam(298) group 'Domain in domain TESTDOM does not exist That's coming from a service specified thusly in smb.conf: [sdisk$] path = /disk1/sdisk writable = yes admin users = @'Domain Users' It appears that the group name is being broken apart at the embedded space in 3.0.5rc1 but when we revert to 3.0.5pre1 things work nicely again. -Matt

I know what this change was. I'll take a look at what needs to change for 3.0.5 final. Jeremy.
