Shouldn't matter.  I haven't verified this in the source though.  Am
working on another problem right now.  The smbpasswd program should
insulate you from case anyways.

Do you mean private/MACHINE.SID?  This is the domain SID generated
randomly if one has not been specified in smb.conf.  After generation,
this file is consulted rather than the smb.conf parameter.  It's
sometying Jeremy is currently working.  No docs yet.  There was a
message about that file recently though from jeremy.  Check the
archives.



Hope this helps,
