We can probably assist with testing and coding Solaris/quota, although we
can no longer help with Solaris/Veritas/quota, as we no longer have such a

If someone of the Samba Team is willing to facilitate this, I'll willingly
submit the changes I made as a possible starting-point.

2.2.3a was much better than 2.2.2; I have heard that even this and 2.2.4
still had occasional problems under Solaris. Not heard anything bad about
2.2.5/Solaris.) So I'd suggest that you investigate 2.2.5 .

I would _strongly_ recommend you to move to at least 2.2.3a. Almost
certainly you should go further, to 2.2.4 .
