Unfortuantly, we'll still be using w2k clients. Now, not having my head
completly buried in my ::cough:: I knew that samba could provide file
sharing. Little did I know that samba-tng would provide good w2k access.

This is my dilemma: to run samba-tng, I have to upgrade to "unstable." My
mandate explictly states that downtime is *BAD*, very, very, very,
bad. How risky is running unstable? What shouldn't I do? Should I upgrade
to 2.4.6? (I'm running a home box as a testbed for this, so I'll be warned
slightly in advance, but...)

Why won't your basic Samba from stable do what you need? It works for me, with Win2k clients!
