Guys,

        I have probably missed an announcement or overlooked something in a 
changelog,
but I just want to confirm what I'm seeing is expected behavior. I run samba in
standalone mode and I have always checked operation with

smbclient -U% -Llocalhost

        Now the faithful command returns an error:

Connection to localhost failed (Error NT_STATUS_BAD_NETWORK_NAME)

        Simply using the hostname instead of localhost works, and samba 
continues to
work fine. So this is really just confirmation request that what I'm seeing is
what I'm supposed to be seeing.

[14:55 nirvana:/etc] # smbclient -U% -Lnirvana
Domain=[RB_LAW] OS=[Unix] Server=[Samba 3.5.6]

        IPC$            IPC       IPC Service (Samba 3.5.6)

        So what say the experts? New security feature?
