These bugs should be, in my personal opinion, one of the first targets for us.
They virtually forbid running two concurrent instances of samba on the same machine which is a feature often needed on some kind of production machines. As a consequence, the only choice of people who want to run such production machines is by recompiling their own packages *without* the fhs.patch applied....and thus no more benefit from the status of "official" Debian packages. Steve mentioned in the last comments that reworking the fhs.patch to make it not break the "lock dir" and "private dir" options needs someone with a good understanding of involved issues. It also requires a good understanding of the code, by the way.... So, please please, if someone has some time to give to samba package enhancement, work on these bugs, they deserve it. And, no, as far as I've seen, I just can't. My coding skills are way too low and I would proceed by analogy and rough guessing, which is not a very good idea, here. -- -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
