[Pkg-samba-maint] Bug#453150: Broken Roaming Profiles with 3.0.24-6etch6 Debian package

[Marcus Schopen]

Package: samba
Version: 3.0.24-6etch6
Severity: grave

After upgrading from 3.0.24-6etch5 to 3.0.24-6etch6 users could not load
their profiles at login anymore. Errors popped out regarding problems
loading insignificant files from their profiles, such as cookies, links
to recently opened files, Java cache files, etc. This caused Windows to
open up a new temporary profile, making everyone lose their settings. In
some cases files on network shares are hidden, or have wrong/strange/cut
file names or can't be copied/moved. This has been testet with WinXP and
W2K clients.

I downgraded back to 3.0.24-6etch5 packages, and things seem to 
be working fine again.
