Samba and shared mem trouble

[Troy Benjegerdes]

samba 2.0.3 seems not to work on glibc-2.1 and kernel 2.2.4 vger.

This appears to be related to shared memory somehow.. Does anyone have
any ideas on what's going on? I'd like to have some suggestions on where
to look before I go off on a wild goose chase bug hunt.

FYI, I patched the maximum shared memory size in shmparam.h from the
original (small) value to
#define SHMMAX 0x1000000
so that cdrecord would be happy. Is there a reason this is still so small?

Following are the errors that occur startup and when I try to connect to
the server using smbclient.

(smbstatus also doesn't work...)
