Log Message:
Update samba to 2.2.0.  Changes from version 2.0.9 include:

* Integration between Windows oplocks and NFS file opens (IRIX and Linux
  2.4 kernel only). This gives complete data and locking integrity between
  Windows and UNIX file access to the same data files.

* Ability to act as an authentication source for Windows 2000 clients as
  well as for NT4.x clients.

* Integration with the winbind daemon that provides a single
  sign on facility for UNIX servers in Windows 2000/NT4 networks
  driven by a Windows 2000/NT4 PDC.

* Support for native Windows 2000/NT4 printing RPCs. This includes
  support for automatic printer driver download.

* Support for server supported Access Control Lists (ACLs).

* On PAM (Pluggable Authentication Module) based systems - better debugging
  messages and encrypted password users now have access control verified via
  PAM - Note: Authentication still uses the encrypted password database.

* Rewritten internal locking semantics for more robustness.
  This release supports full 64 bit locking semantics on all
  (even 32 bit) platforms. SMB locks are mapped onto POSIX
  locks (32 bit or 64 bit) as the underlying system allows.

* Conversion of various internal flat data structures to use
  database records for increased performance and
  flexibility.

* Support for acting as a MS-DFS (Distributed File System) server.

* Support for manipulating Samba shares using Windows client tools
  (server manager). Per share security can be set using these tools
  and Samba will obey the access restrictions applied.

* Samba profiling support

* Compile time option for enabling a (Virtual file system) VFS layer
  to allow non-disk resources to be exported as Windows filesystems
  (such as databases etc.).
