jlam 28a7e3eb15 Update net/samba to version 3.0.22. Changes from version 3.0.21a include:
* Fix CAN-2006-1059 -- samba<3.0.22 exposes the clear text of the
    server's machine account credentials in the winbind log files when
    the log level is set to 5 or higher.

  * Append "-pkgsrc" to the Samba version string so as to distinguish
    the official version from the pkgsrc version, which has the
    modifications for "state directory" and "passwd expand gecos".

  * Modify package so that we automatically determine the name of the
    nsswitch modules that are installed by samba with the winbind
    option.  We extract this information by invoking the config.status
    script to get the value that the configure script determined.

  o Access checks when deleting printer driver meta-data.
  o Several non-default combinations schannel and SPNEGO support.
  o Password changes with NT4 and Win2k pre-SP4 clients.
  o High load issues on IRIX caused by a bug when interfacing
    with kernel oplocks.

  o Server crashes in smbd.
  o Compile issues on 64-bit platforms.
  o Crash bugs on big-endian systems.
  o Packaging fixes for RHEL/Fedora, Solaris, & Debian.
  o Over 30 bugzilla reports closed.

Samba provides file and print services for Microsoft Windows clients.
These services may be hosted off any TCP/IP-enabled platform. The
Samba project includes not only an impressive feature set in file and
print serving capabilities, but has been extended to include client
functionality, utilities to ease migration to Samba, tools to aid
interoperability with Microsoft Windows, and administration tools.
