Many SME's don't have the luzury of single-use machines, so quite a few of
these run mail servers (no incoming SMTP though, either uucp or fetchmail)
and samba, and there's no way I am going to support samba on more than one
distro, it's bad enough supporting samba well (with some of the latest
features to be able to compete with MS) on 8.0,8.1,8.2 and 9.0, and the
reason everyone else running samba on Mandrake gets working RPMs on the
samba FTP mirrors very soon after source release (in some cases with the
source release).
