Ok, Thanks to Luke Howard of PADL who pointed out the RPC authenticator
must be 64-bit aligned I've committed a small fix to the RPC schannel
code which I'm hoping will fix the 64-bit Windows domain logon to a
Samba PDC.

Either check out SAMBA_3_0 SVN code or apply the attached patch to
a Samba 3.0.14a tree and if people with this problem (that's you
Brian and you Björn :-) could test it I'd appreciate it. We were
already 8 byte aligning the authenticators for NTLMSSP sign & seal
RPC's but we'd missed doing the same for schannel ones - this fixes
that oversight.

Please let me know if this fixes it.

Thanks,

	Jeremy.
