Do we have or can we have access to this server as well and help to

1GB free disk would be nice, but 2GB memory isn't needed 512MB would do
it really fine.

It would be nice to have each production release of AIX in the farm.

Ah, thanks! I somehow gets lost somewhere in samba3's configure after
it's added to DYNEXP, I'm debugging this currently.

I don't know, it's AIX 5.2

but with the --uint-enums flags it build fine on samba4...,
so we could workarround.
