Hello, I have a RH7.1 machine with a 2.4.17-xfs kernel. On Monday I compiled and installed samba 2.2.3; compile options: --prefix=<pathtoosamba> --with-pam --with-quotas. We use smbstatus to check if one login exists on more than one machine (complete command: smbstatus -S|grep <share_name>|sort) . Today it happend that smbstatus returned some entries 3, 4 and up to 8 times. So I've did a su and did rerun the command, everything worked as normal. So only if a user other than root runs this command the output is not correct. With samba 2.2.2 this did not happen. Thanks Peter
