Samba 2.2.4 Binary Package

[Franco Tassone]

Hi all

I've checked the system logicals, and I can assure that SAMBA_ROOT is
defined ok, tried also Wolter advice in using VMS filenaming in smb.conf.
No changes, same error during startup, I can't browse the network although I
"see" the workgroup defined.
If for chance I try to access the VMS samba server for my pc, VMS itself
dumps and the system restarts !
BTW, I've not been able to run any samba on this machine (2.0.3 and 2.0.6
ko), though I have samba running on a separate volume in which I've
installed netbsd.
Any more hints ?
