   The only way that I have ever used Samba is as a server to OS/2 clients
running LAN Server requestors or Warp Connect Peer services.  The later
versions have performed flawlessly in that regard (apart from the lack of
EAs).  Older versions of Samba caused big problems with the WPS, but that
was fixed long ago.
