Hello, I'm one of the maintainers of samba packages in Debian. As of now, Debian squeeze provides samba 3.5.6. As per Debian policy wrt updates in the "stable" releases of the distribution, providing 3.5.8 (and later) is not an option we'll be considering for future updates. The policy of our release team is indeed more conservative than the policy of the Samba Team (no offense

I thought I would post this in case it might be of help to someone else who has experienced winbind crashes since moving to 3.5.x. Back in November 2010, after upgrading to Samba 3.5.x, I started experiencing repeated winbind crashed resulting in the generation of "winbind_cache.corrupt" files. I was premature in saying the problem was resolved and the bugs could be closed because

Hi, We are trying upgrade our roaming profile sever from Debian Etch to Debian Squeeze. That's means a upgrade from Samba 3.0.24 to Samba 3.5.8. Our production environment has above 600 concurrent users without problem. After upgrade to Samba 3.5.8, server can't manage above 200 users. With 'smbclient', the output is: Error [user] session setup failed: Call timed out: server did

I will probably file a bug about this, but perhaps someone here will have some ideas. We have a problem with files being deleted instead of being saved when making changes in Microsoft Excel. The log shows an error of: 'Lock order violation'. This is with Samba 4.1.6 and happens on both Linux (2.6.25-14.fc9.i686) and Solaris 10. No such problem when running Samba 3.6.22. We have a setup

Has anyone had any success using net ads join to create a new service principal and join Active Directory using samba 3.5.8. This works fine in 3.0.35 but I'm not able to get a working create/join with 3.5.8 In samba 3.0.35 (on a host which is already allowing kerberised loginsvia AD), the following works: net ads join createupn='CIFS/host.domain.com' \

Hello, for some strange reason I can not get quota to work with Samba 3.5.8. The quoata system itself works fine (using "repquota /mountpoint") and via NFS, but Samba does not report the correct free space (df command in smbclient). Instead the real free space on the disk volume is shown to smb clients (tested from Windows and smbclient). The quotasystem in use is the new quota

Our Solaris 5.10 was running Samba 3.0 with ADS security against winbind and krb5.conf, and all users were able to access it from any Windows system. Following the upgrade to a new AD server running 2008 RC2, we had to upgrade samba on most Unix systems. On Solaris, the new version was 3.5.8 from Sun. I found more config options were required to get the [homes] section to succeed, although I

Hi, since I was bitten badly by this today, I take the additional time to report this issue here. After upgrading from samba 3.5.8 to 3.6.0rc3, Administrator on the xp clients (yes, still xp sp3, no vista, no win7 clients here) lost its admin privileges. My Samba PDC setup evolved over about a decade now, but since it still needs to support a small environment only (20 xp, 30 users), I

Hello, I am trying to get samba-3.5.8 to compile with cups on a Red Hat 5.3 or 6.0.
