Samba 2.2 is out, i haven't tested it, because i updated my suse to 7.1 last
weekend.
I did a little trick, to copy a file with more than 2 gig:
I mounted the windows drive on linux and made a simple 'cp'.
Finally i got a file of >4 GB size, but my original file had something
about 5 GB - I don't know, what the problem was, I'll wait until weekend.

no, thats not what i want, w2k as workstation ok, but not as server -
not my thing...

I don't know this yet - but i'm "happy" to had an little accident on work
today,
so i can stay tomorrow at home, and spend a little time in debugging
(also, how to get the 0.8.2 drivers running with kernel 2.4.3). :-)
