Hello,

I've used a script to test all the mirrors in the samba mirror group, and 7 of 10 are not working.  Since none of the ebuilds using this group are mirror restricted, there is not much reason to continue using this mirror list.  I'd suggest either modifying the affected ebuilds to use the direct ftp.samba.org URL, or just modify the thirdpartymirrors file to only have:

samba   http://ftp.samba.org/pub/samba

Thanks!
