There are a few workarounds in the code to deal
with "Advanced Server for Unix" clients.  One is
to hard code an [admin$] service as a IPC share.
For people with no ASU servers on their network,
setting 'enable asu support = no' will make no
difference.  And in fact it will probably become the
default setting in some future release.
