daniel,
have a look on the samba web site. examine the ftp contributed dir, you
are looking for samba-1.9.17-multiworkgroup.tar.gz
examine the design restructuring in nmbd. that version of samba was
capable of being a domain master browser for any domains you told it to
be.
if you want that functionaliity, i suggest that you attempt to recreate it
in samba cvs main (3.0).
best regards,
luke
