For the record:

  CVE-2007-2447 was present in some form in the 2.2.x branch.
  CVE-2007-2444 does not apply to 3.0.23c or earlier releases.
  CVE-2007-2446 probably applies in some fashion to 2.2.x

But Samba 2.2. was declared EOL in Oct of 2004.  Your only
option is to backport the patches yourself or contact a vendor
for paid support and have them do it.





cheers, jerry
