Hello,

we've been more than happy with Samba 3.0.22 on our Solaris 9 machines,
but when we upgraded to Solaris 10 users are experiencing a multitude
of XP desktop problems: icons disappear, start menu will hang because a
few items link back to a samba share, many XP windows write delay
problems, the whole desktop will hang. It seems the samba server will stop responding.

Is there anybody out there successfully running Samba 3.0.22/3.0.23c on SOlaris 10 with OpenLDAP as the auth backend (passdb backend = ldapsam:ldap://.... )

I've compiled samba on Solaris 10 with gcc, I'm using open source
libldap, liblber and libiconv. I've also tried Samba 3.0.23c.

Sim
