you could try if the makefile has a target 'install-strip' instead of
'install'. that would install binaries which are stripped of all the
debug information. I just reduced a smbd on HP-UX from 2,6meg down to 2
meg by stripping it.
btw, 1.5 meg for a CIFS server is too big for you? look at how much disk
NT4 eats... ;)
