Samba 3.3.x

Samba 3.2.x
Tested features
- can read smb.conf (psmedley)
- compiled successfully 3.2.2, 3.2.3, 3.2.4, 3.2.5, 3.2.6, 3.2.7, 3.2.8, 3.2.9, 3.2.10, 3.2.11, 3.2.12, 3.2.13, 3.2.14 (final)
- reads interfaces successfully
- can login successfully
- no significant changes in behaviour noticed between 3.2.2 and 3.2.6
Unresolved problems
- directories are shown as files
- cannot create/read/write files
- smbstatus cannot read/lock .tdb files
- nmbd.exe does not work correctly - the server is invisible, but accessible
- cannot login on password prompt (only via commandline parameters)
- password is not masked!
- with 3.2.7 libreplace_network.m4 is added, if it is present during configure, Samba 3.2 doesn't compile.
- Removing it makes 3.2.7, 3.2.8, 3.2.9, 3.2.10, 3.2.11 compile and work like previous builds (incomplete patch by psmedley, fixed in 3.3 by diver, requires backport).
Resolved issues
- Commited missing eCS (OS/2) patches from 3.0 since 08/2008, at least since changeset #149

- 06/05/09 os2_randget() fix for SIGSEGV with GCC 4.3.2 and -O2 http://svn.netlabs.org/samba/changeset/254 (tested successfully)
loops with LPQ background thread in printing.c(fixed by diver in 3.3, backported to 3.2 http://svn.netlabs.org/samba/changeset/257)
Note: As Samba 3.2.x also has its end of life on 06/30/2009 (like Samba 3.0.x), we do not plan any release of Samba 3.2.x for eCS. The 3.2 tree is just maintained as a "launchpad" for Samba 3.3.x in order to spot differences in behaviour and get hints for possible solutions.
