> This kit fixes a number of problems that were encountered, such as :
> - SWAT gived full access to the SMB.CONF file to everybody
> - the SMB.CONF file had to be in "stream" format. It did not 
> work with a
> standard VMS "variable record" format.
> - various fixes in the lock management and protections of the 
> .TDB files.
> Those files were sometimes corrupted.
> - Fix of NMBD unexpected exit when Samba configured with WINS support.
