Can you test against 3.0.25a (or soon b) to see if this is
currently a problem please ?

Thanks,

Sorry for the delay in getting back to you on this.

I have checked the latest Samba version, and the same behavior I saw in
3.0.22 also exists in 3.0.25b.  Any ideas what might be happening, or how to
fix this?

Thanks,
Carlos
