Hello,

My apologies to the Samba team!  It is possible to compile Samba 2.2.2 with 
Winbind on Solaris 8.  After downloading, compiling, and installing the GCC 
compiler (version 3.0.1), I was successful at compiling the 2.2.2 release 
without having to disable the winbind feature.  It failed for me before using 
the Sun C compiler version 4.2.  Not only did the GCC compiler do a better job 
the the Sun compiler considering that the Sun compiler wouldn't do it, but the 
GCC compiler is FREE, just like Samba!

I still have yet to attempt to configure and use winbind, and I'm not actually 
sure I even want to yet, but it is nice to know that it is there for me to try 
when I am.

Regards,
