yeah i did that once as well and you don't need to crap around with all that
typing.  you need to copy the files using windows explorer -> samba box
(samba share, winscp, ftp whatever) in the right place as specified by the
doc(may like a backup copy of the files you've collected from your windows
test page) so you can redo your adddriver as many times as you like).   all
that rpcclient stuff is a waste of time IMHO, but perhaps is good because it
makes you think and gives you a little experience using rpcclient if you
haven't before.

confirmation of XP Home being a crock.  can't talk to any windows domains
(took me a little while to figure out why a user couldn't get on when being
told he was sure he had XP Pro <sigh>)  :)
