Indeed. Thanks for the response, Richard. I'll wait for Herbert's (CC'ed) 
packaged 2.4.14 to hit the Debian testing distribution two weeks now 
(I see them sitting there in incoming right now), and try again then. I 
had seen some points in the -ac and Linus changelogs recently; I guess 
that's what I hit.

I don't want to be too rash with this system in question as its a 
production SMB fileserver/Samba PDC/Mail server/etc. I should turn my 
own dev box into a similar config I guess to play with it...

Ta for the help, all,

  James
