Hallo alle miteinander,

I've got a problem ...

In the Samba mailinglist Jeremy Allison reported:

Ok, here's the deal. If you have 64-bit Windows clients at the
moment you need to be using 3.3.10, not anything later. If you're
using 32-bit Windows clients, you can use 3.4.5 or later.

The reason (and Guenther can correct me if I'm wrong), is
that in 3.4.x we changed from the hand-marshalled SPOOLSS RPC
we used in 3.3.x, which was mostly correct after being worked
on for many years, to pidl-generated SPOOLSS RPC directly from
the idl files. Now our idl files are correct, but it turns
out that the Windows idl parser for SPOOLSS is itself custom,
and won't accept the normally marshalled RPC packets that
the pidl-generated code creates.

I need (for a schoolserver distribution) Samba for several Windows
versions (at least for Windows 2000, XP, Vista and Windows 7).

Slackware offers 3.4.4, but no 3.3.x

I've just tried to compile 3.3.10 with the "SlackBuild" script from
3.4.4 - it stops (after a lot of work) wikth

Compiling smbd/server.c
Linking bin/smbd
lib/util_tdb.o: In function `tdb_search_keys':
util_tdb.c:(.text+02x2833): undefined reference to `ap_fnmatch'
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
make: *** [bin/smbd] Error 1

Why does that happen?

Hast Du ein SlackBuild script von einer frueheren version versucht? 12.2
oder 12.1 koennte Samba 3.3 haben (bin mir nicht sicher, habe keinen
Nutzen fuer Samba). Nur so eine Idee.

Meaning loosely translated and skipping some more obvious stuff

Have you tried a build from an earlier version of Slackware? Just an
idea.

You should really fix your sig.

Slackware has never offered Samba 3.3.x - sorry.

Use the SlackBuild for 3.2.13 (you'll find it in Slackware 13.0 source)
on 3.3.10 source package, I just tested it and it goes fine, as I
don't have win64 clients to test you'll have to test yourself and confirm
it's OK :-)

I've tried again (first time I also used the 3.2.13 build script): same
error.

Could you please put your samba-3.3.10 tarball onto some public server?
Thank you!
