So, I'm building 3.0.23b for Slackware (since they don't have
it out yet[1]), and I've noticed these two lines in the script
that Slackware uses to build Samba 3.0.23 from source (which
I'm modifying to build 3.0.23b):
# -j options don't seem to work...
make
Anyone know why that comment might be there? Is it true that
Samba can't be built with "-j2" or similar arguments to
"make"?
Maybe just on Slackware?
The reason I'm asking is that I happen to have this server with
Dual 1.0 GHz PIII Xeons, and it takes forever to build on this
machine. It sure would be nice if it could 0.5*forever instead.

Especially since I discovered a minor error in the build I
was going to put on the server 15 minutes ago, and now have
to build again twice: once to find the error in the build
script, and another time to build it cleanly from scratch,
thus delaying me from going home by at least 30 minutes. ;-)

[1] And no, you don't want my version once I'm done building
it, since I'm building it against the OpenLDAP that I
have installed, and by default Slackware has no LDAP.
But I would be willing to share the 3.0.23 SlackBuild
script that I modified for 3.0.23b if anyone wants it...
