rpmdev-diff of samba-3.3.2-0.33.fc11.src.rpm with Jeremy Allison fix

Description of problem:

Unable to change the attribute of a Samba shared file from WinXP client
from "Read-only" to "Writable"

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

samba-3.3.2-0.33

How reproducible:

Always

Steps to Reproduce:

1. Setup a shared Samba directory, and access it from WinXP client.
2. From WinXP, Select a file and set it as ReadOnly:
  Properties => Attributes => Read-Only  [X] (Then apply)
3. From WinXP, Select the same file and uncheck Read-Only flags:
  Properties => Attributes => Read-Only  [ ] (Then apply)

  
Actual results:

Step 3 failed on WinXP client with "An error occurred applying attributes to the file"


Expected results:

Read-Only flags on selected file removed.

I've just checked with the new released "samba-3.4.1-0.41.fc11" (from testing-update) and it seem to fix this problem.
