>Description:
smb2www perl parses what it expects to be the output from
an earlier version of smbclient. It seems that in the
newer (2.2) samba, the assumptions made by the perl script
as to what the output from smbclient looks like are no
longer true. Hence, smb2www hangs and does not work
completely. (The front page will not display workgroups
available, and cannot enumerate browse lists of those
workgroups)
>How-To-Repeat:
>Fix:
The functions in smb2www.pm GetSMBGroups and GetSMBHosts
(and potentially some others) need to be updated for the
new output of smbclient. Alternatively, add a CONFLICTS
for samba >= 2.2 or mark the package broken for now until its
real maintainer fixes it.
