what you've all been waiting for: a merge of smbd from cvs main to SAMBA_TNG. please help test this one lots, i may have missed something from the code i pulled over from cvs main (70,000 lines of code pretty much copy and diff style!) i spent some time last night getting the security file/dir tab working, and lo and behold, you can view and change unix file perms (i am very impressed, jeremy!) my next will be spoolssd from cvs main, i think, which jean-francois is developing: i will pull over his cvs main work to TNG. luke <a href=" mailto:lkcl@samba.org" > Luke Kenneth Casson Leighton </a> <a href=" http://cb1.com/~lkcl" > Samba and Network Development </a> <a href=" http://samba.org" > Samba Web site </a> <a href=" http://mcp.com" > Macmillan Technical Publishing </a> ISBN1578701503 DCE/RPC over SMB: Samba and Windows NT Domain Internals
