BETA Samba v3.5.8 addon for SPARC processor devices
All, I have completed the Samba 3.5.8 addon for ReadyNAS SPARC devices. I have it successfully installed and running on my NV+ for 2 days now without issue, but have not managed to complete a whole...
Just an FYI: I have built samba 3.6 for the x86 ReadyNAS and hope to start testing it soon.
If you want to use your readynas as a domain controller, and you want to avoid the issue of the smb.conf file being re-written by Frontview, then the only solution I know of is to put your additional configuration information in /etc/frontview/samba/addons/addons.conf. The trouble with this is, nmbd won't read that file.
You can patch samba (3.5.x or 3.6, the patch is the same) to overcome this trouble. I've logged this as a samba defect. Post back here if you want more details.
