[Samba] MS-DOS, WinXP SP2 with 3.05 and 3.0.6rc2

[Rönnblom Janåke /Teknous]

Hello!

I use Windows XP SP2 on my clients. I use the http://unattended.sf.net to
automatically
install my WinXP machines from a MS-DOS client. This works fine in
samba-3.0.5 but since
SP2 causes a problem with printers I upgraded to samba-3.0.6rc2. RC2 in
turn doesn't work
with MS-DOS clients. The symptom is that I can boot from the fileserver
but when I try to
invoke a program I get different error messages. If i downgrade to
samba-3.0.5 it works again
but no printers...

It seems that the client connects and then is disconnected immediately
which in turn causes samba
to spawn another smbd process for the client (se the new pid number). It
spawns a new process everytime
I try to run perl.exe or any executable from MS-DOS.

Could this be the same problem as in:
