samba - Oct 2004 - Access Denied to shares in Lotus Notes and Outlook

Hi All,

I don't know if this is a samba problem or not, but if users want to add
files as an attachment
in Lotus Notes and MS Outlook, and these files reside on samba shares,
they get an "access denied" message.

This "access denied" message refers to the whole share not only a
file.
Samba Server version is 3.0.4 on Sparc Solaris 8 acting as AD Member
Server (W2K DC).

Everything else is working fine and access from other programs like
Excel, Access etc. is granted.

I know there have been improvements in the 'open_directory()' function
in 3.0.6 and intended to upgrade to 3.0.7.
But since I am stuck there (make check fails in function strstr_m, I
posted it already...) I wanted to be sure that this upgrade would do the
trick at all.
Has anybody experienced similar problems, or better yet encountered an
easy solution ?

Any tips and hints are welcome...
