Hi Bill, please let me know when your AMP bundle is done and you have the 3.4.0 ctdb-samba version packaged. Then we could go to work and find out how a "best practice" for setting up a clustered samba on AIX needs to look like. :-)

Shall we give it a try?! ;-) > Indeed I would. :-) I have passed some patches back upstream for AIX, but I am completing a test for broken libgpfs.a before they can be included. In the meantime, I've been successful with a pware53{-64}.clustered-samba.rte 3.3.4.0 (32- and 64-bit). I can work on the 3.4 version later today since my patch set is against this level. I'm finishing up an AMP refresh I can't wait to get off my plate. :-) Cheers, Bill > Kind regards > > Volker > > > -----Ursprüngliche Nachricht----- > Von: Volker Lendecke [mailto:[email protected]] > Gesendet: Mo 27.07.2009 15:47 > An: Arendt, Volker > Cc: [email protected] > Betreff: Re: [Samba] Share access problem from 3.4.0 > > On Mon, Jul 27, 2009 at 03:19:15PM +0200, Arendt, Volker wrote: > > Hi all, > > > > we have a public share for all of our users.
