Christian:
I installed your packages with the patches for Debian in Ubuntu 8.10 using the Synaptic front end for apt without any problems. I did not change my smb.conf file. The following tests to my IOmega 500 GB Home Network Harddrive (NAS) worked without any problems.
1. Created a test file "test.txt" and using smbclient via a terminal "put" the file into the /public folder of the NAS.
2. Using smbclient, used the "get" command to retrieve "test.txt" and rename it and put it on my desktop as "testret.txt".
3. Using Nautilus under the Gnome desktop opened (mounted) the /public folder on the NAS and dragged the "test.txt" file into it.
4. Deleted the "test.txt" file from the NAS via the Nautilus window.
5. Copied a 700.1 MB avi file from the /public folder of the NAS to the Gnome desktop via Nautilus "drag & drop".
All these tests worked OK. I will keep your Samba version for a couple of days to give it some more of a workout, but so far it seems to work the same as the one in Thierry's latest ppa for Ubuntu.
