We are not accepting bugs against Samba 2.2 unless they are security problems. Samba2.x is no longer actively developed and is in security maintanence mode only. I suggest you file a bug with the Debian project and ask them to update to a maintained version of Samba. Although Samba 3 isn't in the Debian stable tree, the forthcoming release of Debian 3.1 includes Samba 3.0.2a. Although this release has been a long time in development, there isn't a confirmed release date yet as the last few bugs are still being squished. However, if you can't wait for that release, www.backports.org provides a Samba 3.0.2a package for Debian stable which I have tested and found to be OK at work. The website provides instructions on how to get packages via apt. The only thing that the backports.org packages were missing that I needed was "quota reporting" support, but I was able to recompile the packages quite easily to enable this option.

There is no further development going on for the 2.2 branch.

[Samba] Verified bug in Woody Samba; Where to report?
I have spent the last week trying to figure out why the command smbclient -L win98server kept crapping out. After grepping through the source code, I figured out the error was in gethostbyname(I think). The solution to this problem is running the command smbclient -L win98server -R bcast instead. But that still leaves it to the next person to figure this all out, and that is not really a good solution. smbclient -L win98server should be a workable command. How do I go about reporting this error? https://bugzilla.samba.org/enter_bug.cgi has no category for Samba 2.2 -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba
