Bill,

Went to http://www.backports.org/ .

Stepped through "packages" and found 3.0.3 at "http://www.backports.org/debian/dists/stable/samba/binary-i386/".

Went back to http://www.backports.org/ and searched of "samba".

Added (per the search) the following line to "/etc/apt/sources.list" towards the bottom (before the CD section).

     deb http://www.backports.org/debian/ woody samba

Performed "apt-get update".

Performed "apt-get upgrade" which resulted in:

  The following packages have been kept back
    Samba samba-common swat
  0 packages upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 3  not upgraded.

Also, after the upgrade, "dpkg --list | grep samba" (per Derek) still shows 2.2.3a-13. for both samba and samba-common

I have no idea where to go from here. Therefore ...Help!!!

and thanks,

George
