Hi now I have the cvs souces (2.2.3-pre) And the Problem with the include = smb.conf.%U is there again, but the shares from the linked file (smb.conf.'USER') are not there from the begining on! In the last version (2.2.2) the shares form (smb.conf.'USER') are lost after about one minute. Now they are not lost: they are not there from the loggin at the PDC :-(( Any ideas what happend there? Thanks Dietrich Heise
