1/ if "guest" has been disabled from "passdb backend", smbd should *not* crash with a segfault when guest is still written inside, but instead ignore it or show an explanatory error message; testparm should also report it (it still doesn't). 2/ The changelog provided in the Debian package doesn't give any rationale, only the fact it was removed. 3/ by reading the changelog I see that some upgrade *should* have *silently* removed the incriminated "guest" value. (a) it didn't, and (b) it shouldn't be done silently but instead clearly advertised since it's important functionality removal. 4/ "passdb backend = tdbsam guest" was working fine for me. Is the new version supposed to behave the same, i.e. provide the same access right policy, with "guest" removed ? -- Hope this helps, Fabien. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
