Description Enji Cooper 2011-08-26 00:51:40 UTC 
If I enter in the following in smb.conf...

    hosts allow = 0.0.0.0

It rejects all requests instead of allowing all requests. This is an alias for * for IPV4 requests.

INADDR_ANY and in6addr_any need to be consistently permitted or rejected by testparm, et all.
