I'm planning on a 2.2.5 release on Friday. I don't see any showstoppers on the horizon at the moment. This is planned to be the last 2.2.x release and the branch will move into "bug fix only" mode. Keep your fingers crossed. All testing is appreciated. :-) Hint Hint Andrew Esh, I've still got your bug report I'm working on as well. cheers, jerry - Hewlett-Packard http://www.hp.com SAMBA Team http://www.samba.org --http://www.plainjoe.org "Sam's Teach Yourself Samba in 24 Hours" 2ed.

As far as I know it does (if you turn off kernel oplocks on Linux 2.4.x and above, which seems to have some problems). If you have a test case that can prove differently, I'd like to know about it.

Telnet is trying be IPv6 compatible, and is using a different nsswitch function. A patch went to the list quite a few months ago, and I think it even got applied, but somehow it got backed out. In any case, the fix is to provide the correct nsswitch function for any address class, but only implement it for IPv4. >From memory its about 5 lines long...

In the context of the request, he clearly must be talking about giving ping and telnet names. Since both should be using gethostbyname, and gethostbyname is clearly calling the entry points in libnss_wins.so in one case, I wonder what is happening in the other case.

RE: Buglist to fix before 2.2.5
Yo, One bug that it would be totally cool if it were fixed would be the wins lookup ( libnss_wins.so ) it works with ping but not with telnet or any other application. Some people are using linux boxes as workstations in networks without dns. With this working they would not have to find out ip addresses for their mail servers/people running webservers on machines that have dynamic ip addresses. In short it would be a sweet feature. --B -Original Message- From: Gerald Carter [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Friday, May 17, 2002 5:18 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]( Subject: Re: Buglist to fix before 2.2.5 On Fri, 17 May 2002, Gerald Carter wrote: > * confirm/deny reports of access denied problems from > win2k client attempting to maniuplate printer properties. > > * 64-bit compile errors on Solaris (reported by Eric Boehm) > > * wildcard bugs on Solaris (reported by Derek Holden) > > * inherit acls crash on IRIX (reported by Nicholas Brealey) > > * unix_to_nt_time() bug (patch from Jordan Russell) > > * various doc updates > > * CIFS for UNIX extensions fixes (patch by John Newbigin) Couple more I forgot. * confirm/deny explorer delete bug (reported by Bill Lacy) * confirm/deny timestamp issues when copying to a Samba share cheers, jerry - Hewlett-Packard http://www.hp.com SAMBA Team http://www.samba.org --http://www.plainjoe.org "Sam's Teach Yourself Samba in 24 Hours" 2ed.
