Package: samba Version: 2:3.2.5-4lenny9 Severity: important The Debian stable version of Samba is unable to authenticate to w2k8r2 in some cases. This is fixed in the upstream Samba as of version 3.4. The patch applies easily to Samba 3.2.5. I understand that only security-related fixes are normally applied to stable, but this seems like an easy patch to apply for a bug which is likely to hit an increasing number of people as organizations upgrade from w2k3 to w2k8.
