Morning...

	With log level set to 1, and samba 2.0.3 installed, I'm getting
the following error message on one of the servers we run samba on:

09:39:33 relay smbd[4982]: [1999/04/05 09:39:33, 0] smbd/uid.c:unbecome_user(292)
09:39:33 relay smbd[4982]:   chdir(/d/anon-ftp/pub/unix-src/net/build/samba-2.0.3/source) failed in unbecome_user

	Does this mean anything to anyone?  

	not sure if the "lead up" to the error means anything, but the
system was idle all weekend, so when I click'd on the share, a new smbd
child process had to start up, and the above error was generated.

	The part that really confuses me is the chdir() tht it lists, as
its not a directory, or even hiearchy, that is available thorugh the
shares, so why is it trying to cd to it ?
