CVS update: samba/source/lib/rpc/server (fwd)

[Dana Canfield]

This is a great feature.  It at least eliminates the lurking dilemna of
getting the majority of users into the system.  But, I do have two quick
questions (sorry, I'm one of those that will jump, but wants to carry 6
parachutes...):

1) Using this feature just requires changing a registry setting in NT4 SP3
to use clear-text, right?
2) If so, are there are known problems running cleartext on SP3 besides the
"decreased security"?

Thanks all, it's getting exponentially better every day!
