We are struggling at work with joining AD 2008 with openSUSE 10.3 clients.
During the process we have seen that this is a bug in Samba that is fixed in the Samba 3.0.28a release, released the 8th of March.
This fix is already part of the current 3.0.28 packages. Hm. Migh only be in factory and not on ftp.suse.com. Ping us again if this isn't addressed till the end of this week.
Checking in on factory I noticed that it is the 3.0.28 packagaes that is in. Would it be possible to upgrade these packages to the latest official Samba release? http://packages.opensuse-community.org/index.jsp?distro=SUSE_Factory&searchTerm=Samba http://news.samba.org/releases/samba_3_0_28a_download/
The update to 3.0.28a is in work. 3.2.0 is expected to be release in about the next four weeks. Therefore the Novell Samba Team soon moves to the latest pre or rc release.
Would it also be possible to add the packages for 3.0.28a for SLES 10.1 and openSUSE10.3 at http://en.opensuse.org/Samba ? (Or a build service repository?)
We'll soon see 3.0.28a packages and 3.2.0 pre and rc in http://ftp.suse.com/pub/projects/samba/pre/ And packages made from the OBS are on our TODO as well.
Currently we are a bit afraid that we will get in to trouble with a SLES 10.1 fileserver we have :-) But our major problem is that we use openSUSE 10.3 for some dev teams and they can't join new machines to the upgraded AD infrastructure.
We are more than happy to test the packages!
Thanks! But help on the Samba OBS stuff would be useful as well. And is highly appreciated. This allows any of you to get a higher quality out of SUSE and Samba while we're able to increase the upstream quality as well. Even contribution and feedback to the quoted http://en.opensuse.org/Sambahttp://en.opensuse.org/Samba and the http://en.opensuse.org/Bugs/Samba page is higly appreciated.
