I am pretty sure you need 3.3.X or 3.4.X and the suggested versions
are better since they contain the latest bug and regression fixes.
Also if you print through samba and have 64 bit clients 3.3.10 is the
best version.

Ok, thank you very much...

And we choosed Novell SuSE because they look very reactive, but it looks
like they are still at 3.2...

What is the best distribution for Samba ?

We need an extremely reactive and very stable solution, and this server
will serve as file and profiles server. We have XP, and will have Seven...

If you had a suggestion, it would be great :-)

BTW, remember that samba printing does not work with 3.4.X under 64
bit clients. I am not sure if that is a problem for you.

No I prefer disabling totally printing on samba (very old bad experiment ;-)
