Me neither. Indeed the lack of 7.3-2 support is a complete show-stopper for me as I have a series of turn-key accredited systems locked to 7.3-2. I have no IA64 systems. So it is no-go for me unless I end up doing a mixed-version cluster with the sole purpose of running Samba - and I don't even know if a 7.3-2/8.3 cluster will work, not to mention being supported! Can anyone enlighten me as to exactly which features in 8.3 are required?
