2.0 isn't working on linux for me either. It appears to be a
problem w/ authentication. I can't log in from a Win98 box or from the
same machine w/ smbclient. SWAT won't authenticate either. I haven't
had
much of a chance to try and track this down. Must be some sort of
autoconf/make problem (maybe a missing library?).
I'd suggest that Linux users use the last pre-2.0 version until
this gets fixed.
