SMB Patch from Microsoft - Samba Shares?

[GRAMS, CHRISTIAN]

Good morning,

 

Microsoft has brought out a patch (MS08-068) for the SMB protocol. This
patch, patches a flaw which is over 7 years old in the SMB of Windows. 

I have a Fedora 9 Samba server running and Windows XP / Vista Clients.
Does anyone have any information as to possible problems applying this
patch? 

Since the patch changes the way SMB authentification is checked / done,
I am worried that my clients will not be able to reach their samba
shares. 

 

regards

Christian
