samba-1.9.18alpha2 (temporary)

[Luke Kenneth Casson Leighton]

dear samba digest,

i've temporarily created a samba-1.9.18alpha2.tar.gz, which is in 
the ftp directory samba.anu.edu.au:/pub/samba/alpha.

it contains, or has updated versions of:

docs/NTDOMAIN.txt

	pretty much the same as what i posted to the list earlier today,
	along with some indication of what kinds of packets to expect,
	and some indication of why you might not be seeing those packets.

docs/DOMAIN.txt

	mentions that samba can now be a PDC for NT Workstations,
	and that this is experimental.

docs/smb.conf.5

	new parameters: logon drive; logon home; domain sid; domain groups.
	new substitution %N.  allows you to specify the NIS auto.map server.


source modifications, see cvs logs for details, but it includes:

	domain groups parameter.  if anyone knows what this is, please let
	me know!

	the default for logon home ("\\%N\%U") is used in the Win95 AND NT
	profiles

	%N a new substitution macro, which defaults to the same as %L if
	you don't compile with -DAUTOMOUNT and -DNETGROUP.  or if you
	don't have a NIS auto.map database.
