I was talking about the server. I can't recall if it was 3.0.23, .24, or .25, but somewhere in there problems were introduced that effects the SID/GID and caused a number of problems. Since it doesn't take that long, I'd do both server and laptop.

It's odd, though, that the problem only affects this one laptop. The ancient laptop that was my stopgap while this was being repaired didn't have the problem, and I had Mandriva 2008 on that as well.

That is the rub about mandriva, nobody is building samba rpms anymore. I built samba from source for the past 2 years on 2005LE, until I replaced the server with openSuSE 10.3. Wonderful support for samba rpms.

I'm tempted to leave this for the moment. I'm just configuring a new server box with CentOS. I shall see tomorrow whether samba gives me full access to that box. If it does, I'll not worry about the out-going one.

I HATE mysteries!
