As a systems admin for a Sun client, I am very much looking forward to Sun provided Samba 3.4. (I was getting concerned that Sun would freeze samba support at 3.0 in favor of native CIFS support. I remember Sun for years explaining why PCNetLink was superior to Samba before quite reasonably abandoning PCNL for Samba.) )
In the interim I am trying to compile it myself to prepare for Windows 7 support. This post helps clarify why compiling. ldap support has been tricky. The Samba build from Sunfreeware.com works pretty well but does seem to fully support zfs and winbind. Is there a Sun/OpenSolaris Samba project web site? Are you using (or planning to use) GCC or Sun Studio for the compiler? Thanks -- This message posted from opensolaris.org
