Hi,

i upgraded my server from 3.0.10 to 3.0.11pre2 on friday.
today i recognized, that the variable substitution isn't working 
correctly.

my smb.conf file containes the following two lines:
include = smb.conf.%G
include = smb.conf.%U

this was working fine with previous samba versions (up to 3.0.10)
the included files contained special shares which were accessable by the 
group members.
with 3.0.11pre2 the %U substitution seams to work correctly, but %G isn't 
working correctly.
sometimes the substitution is working, but at the next connect the 
situation can turn to the complete different.
Accessing such a share with smbclient returns NT_STATUS_BAD_NEWTORK_NAME.

is it possible that activating substitutions for LDAP directories broke 
the normal substitutions?

any thoughts/solutions would be appreciated.

Joerg
