Yes, they don't seem to play well with others, do they. The right way to do this is to cooperate in getting their changes back into upstream code. Unfortunately Apple changes their underlying system so much from the original FreeBSD (adding Windows ACLs into the kernel and filesystem for example) that almost certainly it's hard for us to accept such alien patches. I just checked for binaries for you, fink's samba seems to be very old, there is no Samba in the darwinports. So it looks like you can either wrestle with the source from opendarwin: http://darwinsource.opendarwin.org/tarballs/other/samba-92.9.tar.gz or wait for Apple Or Apple can learn how to cooperate with Open Source/Free Software projects. But given what they did to the Konqueror code I'm not holding my breath for that.

Jeremy, I could have sworn I'd seen you commenting here on how much you disliked the way that Apple had hacked the Samba code..

[Samba] Broken Samba in OS X. Any Alternatives?
We all know that in Mac OS X 10.4, and in the upgrade 10.4.1, Apple managed to break Samba. Now, I am at a great loss for remote filesystem mounting. Not only is Samba broken, but NFS is questionable (I can never seem to get rid of that incorrect username/ password error and retain read/write abilities). Also, I'm have trouble with netatalkd for Debian. Are there any other filesystem sharing systems that could work with OS X? I mean until Samba gets fixed. Because of its continued use as a heating duct sealant, duct tape now surrounds us. Time and exposure to high temperatures slowly breaks duct tape down, and tiny particles drift into ducts where they are eventually carried into the air. And so, duct tape is like God. It's everywhere. --The Duct Tape Book editor, Tony -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba
