DESCRIPTION

Here are the results of sharing files with Samba 2.2.9 and Samba 3.0.4 :

Both versions of Samba are installed on a HP J5600 (hostname = mtp3) with HP-UX 
10.20, compiled locally with gcc.

The config files (smb.conf and smbusers) are at the end of this message.

With Samba 2.2.9 :
-----------------------
From a Windows workstation (monfs02/user:admin_mon), I can reach my Samba 
share :

root@mtp3:/tmp# /usr/local/samba/bin/smbstatus -d    
using configfile = /usr/local/samba/lib/smb.conf
Opened /usr/local/samba/var/locks/connections.tdb

Samba version 2.2.9
Service      uid      gid      pid     machine
----------------------------------------------
tttmmppp     root     sys       9270   monfs02  (10.58.80.42) Tue Jun  1 
22:34:30 2004

No locked files


Everything looks OK for me. Even for more complicated read/write access for 
shares defined in smb.conf 


With Samba 3.0.4 :
-----------------------
Using the same smb.conf (except NetBios name) and same file smbusers, 
from the same Windows workstation and same user (monfs02/user:admin_mon), I can 
reach the Samba share. But instead of being user "root", I become user "bb".

root@mtp3:/usr/local# /usr/local/samba/bin/smbstatus -d                     
Unknown parameter encountered: "read size"
Ignoring unknown parameter "read size"

Samba version 3.0.4

-------------------------------------------------------
tttmmppp     10360   monfs02       Tue Jun  1 22:39:24 2004
No locked files


I lose all specific permissions allowed by smb.conf because I become a generic 
user (bb = *) or a guest user.
What happened ???

- I stop any version of Samba before starting running the other one.


- Result of "joining domain" for both versions :

- On Windows servers (PDC, Wins,...) the patch KB828741 is installed. I think 
that it is linked to this patch because I observed strange behavior, difficult 
to explain, since the patch is installed.

For example : (on another HP server)
-------------
With Samba 2.2.8a : everything OK.
I tried to upgrade to Samba 2.2.9 (same smb.conf, with same NetBios name) :
- I delete NetBios name from Windows domain and Wins server.
- I do "smbpasswd" from Samba 2.2.9 (runs OK)
- I run Samba 2.2.9 daemons : impossible to reach the shares !!
- I try to run back to 2.2.8a :
- I delete NetBios name from Windows domain and Wins server.
- I do "smbpasswd" from Samba 2.2.8a (runs OK)
- I run Samba 2.2.8a daemons :Impossible to reach the shares !!
- I remove KB828741 from PDC server (OS=NT4)
- I delete NetBios name from Windows domain and Wins server.
- I do "smbpasswd" from Samba 2.2.9 (runs OK)
- I run Samba 2.2.9 daemons : everything OK
- I reinstall KB828741 on PDC server
everything is still OK now...


You can join me for further tests.

Marc.
