[Samba] Question about version 2.0.6 & 2.0.7

[Bernd Wölfel]

Hi,
I guess you could remove the entry, but by doing this you allow "any"
host to access your samba server / specified share, as defined in global
or share section of smb.conf.
I suggest only allowing access to networks you want to access your samba
server, simply add it to the global section.
eg:	
hosts allow = 192.168.0.0/255.255.255.0

for details read eg
