New - 28th June, 2007
URL for Samba Server 3.0.25b is
ftp://ftp.netlabs.org/pub/samba/server/samba-3.0.25b-os2-20070801.zip
URL for Samba Client 3.0.25b is

The client is a Netdrive plugin and reguires Netdrive from

From Readme.os2 for the Samba server:
"History:
1) DBCS fixes from KO Myung-Hun
2) removed ldap support from public builds until it can be tested as working"
Though I don't see it in the current server readme, the previous releases require the GCC runtime libc063 -

[Moderator note: Make sure you only have one set of LIBC06*.DLLs in your LIBPATH directories.]
