a lot of work has been done by the samba team during the last weeks, to
get eCS / OS/2 working right with _samba 4.0_.
Samba 4.0 is the upcoming new version - a more or less complete re-write
of samba with many, many  new features....
The 4.0 release date is unknown at the moment.
A. Tridgell: "... it will be released, when it is ready for release..."
If you need further information, you can also contact me directly at

Cheers, Guenter

btw - two samba - os/2 related IRC channels have been setup on irc.freenode.net
    #samba-os2
    #samba-os2-technical
Everyone should feel free to join those channels - it's not too crowded there at the moment. :-)
