Fixed bugs include:
- 2.2.6 final release (9.0 shipping pre-release fix).
- Fix documentation and smb.conf man page.
- Fix for smbumount hanging when unmounting a dead share.
- Fix for Windows XP sp1 roaming profiles not working properly.
- Fix pdf generator script.
- Fix problem with smbclient listing shares on win9x servers.
- Fix problem with samba leaking file descriptors when kernel change
notify is turned on.
