Hi Folks !

I'm the guy with the rapid-pellet mode (couldn't copy a large file from win98 to 
samba-share). 

Today I found another bug in vesrion 2.2.3a : Our unix-server hosts a samba-share that 
contains all files from the win98-CD. Every win98-client maps this share as drive Z. 
He uses this drive when win98s asks for the windows-cd. After Upgrading the server 
from samba 2.0.7 to samba 2.2.3a the win98-machine locks when he tries to access this 
"windows-cd-rom-drive-share" The normal browsing via explorer works fine, but the 
selection of "Z:\" as Source of the win98-CD (during the dialog "new hadrware found" 
eg.) locks the win-machine completely. After changing the binaries smbd and nmbd back 
to version 2.0.7 on the server, everything workes fine again.

########    And the best: The problem with the large files that could not be 
transfered is gone, too  !!
     ##                   (mail subject: Very bad performance when copying large files 
from windows to samba-share)

So my question is: What have you changed that might cause this strange behaviuor ? Can 
you fix it ? 
If you send me smbd-nmbd-binaries from different versions, I could try all of them and 
report back wich stepping contained the misbehaviour at first.

Regards,

Lars.
