We recently upgraded one of our Mandrake servers to 10 Official with Samba 3
and found that we could not get USER security to work. We had used the KDE
GUI to setup Samba but with little success. We un-installed all Samba
options and reinstalled omitting the KDE GUI interface. We configured Samba
3 using SWAT and USER security worked without any trouble whatsoever. We
have always used SWAT and rightly consider it the only accurate way to setup
Samba unless you really are a Samba guru.
On Samba 3 we have an unresolved problem with nmbd shutting down when there
are no workstations active on the network. We understand this is a known
issue and would appreciate knowing where we can obtain a Mandrake package for
Samba 3.0.4 as we believe the issue was resolved in 3.0.4.
Regards,
Bob
