out of curiosity.
would grabbing the win2k/NT machines sys id from the reg & plonking that
into samba's machine.sid (or whatever it's called) do anything to get
around that?
I know that as a rule you don't dick with this under NT as doing so
without completely killing the box is somewhat of a black art, but with
Samba you should have the ability to easily the change the machine
domain account details.
just a thought
