Jeurgen, apologies for your experience. I've been a bit busy. If you are really interested in evaluating Likewise-CIFS, my suggestion it to pull the latest "master" branch from git://git.likewiseopen.org/likewise-open.git and run "build/mkcomp all && build/mkpkg cifs". That will generate a likewise-open-cifs package that you can install and experiment with. if you have questions, please email me directly and I'll do what I can to help.
The issues you are seeing in the likewise-open-server package are just packaging issues and not engineering issues IMO.
In the next 30 days, I will hopefully start generating likewise-open 6.0 packages for the PPA that work around some of the krb5 system libraries issues that are making our gss-ntlm sad. For better or worse, my focus on the likewise-open packages in Lucid focused on upgrades from previous releases and making the authentication support solid for desktops and servers.
