Version 2.2.8.  I pulled down the RPM from Samba's download site.
Did an rpmbuild -bp to see the source file it used.  The "WHATSNEW.txt"
shows that the code was chnage so %a reports the proper architecture for
Windows XP (WinXP) and Windows .NET (Win2K3).

Still, when I log in from a Windows XP Professional client "Win2K" is
still used.

The few lines from the log for this client are as follows.

[2003/04/04 13:01:42, 2] smbd/close.c:close_normal_file(229)
  ittest closed file ittest/Win2K/ntuser.ini (numopen=1)

(numopen=2)

As you can see the "Win2K" is still present.
