I'm talking with Jerry about it. The problem is there's no admin parameter to turn off kernel change notify on Linux so you haev to recompile (this is bad). I'll probably add such a parameter if we do. Jeremy. -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba

[Samba] Is 2.2.6 Final?
