 ================================================
 
-Recent security updates for Windows 2000 and Windows 2003
-have changed the fashion in which user and group list can 
-be obtained from domain controllers.  In short, the rpc 
-mechanisms used by "security = domain" to retrieve users 
-and groups is not compatible with these changes.   The 
-"security = ads" configuration is not affected by the
-Windows protocol changes.
