Ok, time for me to repeat my regular complaint: the Samba mail archives suck. They suck bad. Now I can't find a way to search them anymore. This makes the archives suck worse. I'm looking for some patches. I have those patches for earlier versions of Samba and probably could work them into 2.0.7 myself, but I'd like to find clean versions of those patches for 2.0.7. In the past I found newer versions of patches easily via the archive searchfeature. Now what? I know I'm not much of a contributor to Samba, so maybe I'm not entitled to expect any sort of useful response to my regular complaints about the archives. But I thought I'd try one more time... You can find my previous whining about the archives in the archives, just search^W^W^H^H. If there is a search feature and I just missed it feel free to flame me, but do let me know where the search feature is, please. Thank you, Nico --
I stumbled across this site after experiencing the same problems (S L O W, no search function, etc). http://samba.cadcamlab.org/lists/ nice search function using htDig and its noticeably quicker (at least for me). good luck. -Nick -----Original Message----- From: samba-admin@lists.samba.org [mailto:samba-admin@lists.samba.org]On Behalf Of Nicolas Williams Sent: Friday, October 13, 2000 1:52 PM To: samba-technical@samba.org; samba-ntdom@samba.org; samba@samba.org Subject: Archive Search?

I don't know how often Google updates their indexes for any given site, but most of what I find is pretty recent. Home this helps.
