It doens't matter.  I made them an alias for each other when I dropped
the internal winbind for 4.2.  (I don't like breaking config files, and
the generated line with all the values listed wasn't intentional.  It
was meant to be printed as "server services = -dns" or omitted, but
some magic got in the way and now we are a bit stuck.
