Packages for Mandrake 10.1 (i586), Mandriva 2005le (i586 and x86_64) and 
Mandriva 2006 (i586 and x86_64) are available from 
http://anorien.csc.warwick.ac.uk/mirrors/buchan/samba/ . These packages are 
not officially supported by Mandriva (and I haven't been able to do much 
testing yet), so please send any feedback to me directly.

Regards,
Buchan
