Update of /data/cvs/samba/source/smbd
In directory samba:/tmp/cvs-serv4862/smbd

Modified Files:
      Tag: SAMBA_2_0_RELEASE
	chgpasswd.c 
Log Message:
This code is too ugly to rock-n-roll, but too young to die.... :-).

The special case in wildcard matching is *Win9x* - *NOT* WinNT.

It turns out that Win9x treats trailing '?' characters in a component
*differently* from both DOS and WinNT (and Win2K). In Win9x the number of
trailing '?' characters must match exactly, in all other MS clients
they do not have to.

This code is very ugly and needs re-writing but does work in the
test cases Herb & I have.

Jeremy.
