That's very true too. It's due to one of my "optimizations", which was =
not
so good after all, and which is now useless anyway. I was not aware of =
this
bad effect because I have no Win98 clients. It will be fixed in the =
next
release.

Subject: Samba/Vms 2.2.7a ODS-5 support

Hi.

There is a new release of Samba/VMS 2.2.7a at the usual location
http://www.pi-net.dyndns.org/anonymous/jyc/

This release supports ODS-5 file system, if (and only if...) you run =
VMS
Version 7.2-1 or later, and you have downloaded and installed the =
latest
CRTL patches for your version, which you can find at
http://ftp.support.compaq.com/patches/.new/openvms.shtml

This release should fix most problems you may encounter with ODS-5.

For example, I suspect that the Excel "save as..." and "New Excel..."
problem that was reported a couple of days ago by Carl Perkins should =
be
fixed with this release (providing that Mr Perkins uses ODS-5, which I =
guess
is true).

Enjoy...

Jean-Yves Collot
