1.9.17alpha5 and 1.9.17: keyboard unusable after domain logons
dear samba users, is anyone else experiencing keyboard lockup from w95 after a domain logon user logs out from a samba server? is anyone using 1.9.17 for domain logons _not_ experiencing keyboard lockup? you can press escape, tab, shift-tab, but as soon as you type any letters, the caps-lock and scroll-lock keys flicker on, and you can't type in a username or password. it's really bizarre. unplugging the keyboard and re-plugging it in makes no difference. we're clearly tickling something wierd in w95, and i'd like to nail it. luke

I never found out a reason why as I couldn't reliably reproduce the problem and have I seen it in the past 6 months. However, I have never seen the problem in the Win 95 'B' (i.e. OSR2 and 2.1) release. Simeon

Hi Luke! Alghough I run Samba, I've experienced this EXACTLY same problem when a Windows NT 4.0 Server was acting was a PDC, so I believe that the problem is with Winblows 95! Bye, Celso.
