There is a nasty bug on samba, up to 3.0.10, which causes Excel to
incorrectly think a file was changes by someone else.

This is a know issue, fixed on samba 3.0.11 (stock). A patch was
also applied to samba on RHEL 3, but was NOT on RHEL 4.

This patch (samba-3.0.9-excel.patch) will apply cleanly on samba-3.0.10-1.4E.9,
and build without a glinch.

This issue is NOT solves by http://support.microsoft.com/kb/324491
(has it on a machine with Office SP3 installed).

Maybe we can get a centosplus version of samba with this patch applied ?
