Hi All,

This is probably pertinent for the Fedora Core 2 group here, as well.  I
know that Mandrake Cooker has already implemented these patches, which are
required for Winbind with Active Directory authentication.  There is a
know issue in Samba 3.0.3 and Samba 3.0.4; these pactches fix it up.

Full details, with source and binary packages, are included below.

Subject: Updated Fedora Core 2 Packages [unofficial]

Hi All,

I have updated Fedora Core 2 packages available for Samba 3.0.4.  These
include the winbind patch as was already inclded in the latest Mandrake
Cooker packages and also a fix for the winbind.init startup script.

More info on the winbind patch can be found at this location:

  https://bugzilla.samba.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1315

The winbind.init startup script had the following code changed:

  [ $RETVAL -eq 0 ] \
    && rm -f /var/run/nmbd.pid \
    && rm -f /var/lock/subsys/winbindd

And instead of issuing an error, the script now works w/ this new code:

  if [ $RETVAL -eq 0 ]; then
    rm -f /var/run/nmbd.pid
    rm -f /var/lock/subsys/winbindd
  fi

These packages were compiled on a freshly-installed Fedora Core 2 box, and
they were tested to work correctly with winbind Active Directory user
authentication.  The `winbind -t` command gives beautiful results, now.

These unofficial packages are now available from the following location:

  ftp://bagel.express.org/fedora/core2-packages
    /samba/samba-3.0.4-4.wrl.src.rpm
  ftp://bagel.express.org/fedora/core2-packages
    /samba/samba-3.0.4-4.wrl.i386.rpm
  ftp://bagel.express.org/fedora/core2-packages

  ftp://bagel.express.org/fedora/core2-packages
    /samba/samba-swat-3.0.4-4.wrl.i386.rpm

Samba Team:  Please feel free to add these to the official collection,
preferably with the %changelog kept around for credit? ;)  Please note the
3.0.4-4.wrl version, as opposed to a 3.0.4-3.wrl that is out there, also.
