2.2.2 Release incredibly broken?

[Noel Kelly]

Thanks Jeremy.  OK - I'll get it now and give it a whirl and get back to you
at the end of the week with my findings.

That is a little radical. Currently the SAMBA_2_2 CVS Tree is
being prepared for release as 2.2.3, and has fixes for (hopefully
all) of the bugs the original poster and you are having problems
with.

Please test it out and give us feedback ASAP if it doesn't fix
things, as we're in the process of doing Q/A before final release.

Jeremy.
