ok i found it i did a trace -d 20 but it showd no new info 
but if you still need it i can provide it.

the problem is is getsmbfile21pwent(void *vp)
on line 290 

 pstrcpy(samlogon_user, pw_buf->smb_name); 

samlogin_user is a global :( ugggg.. and is the same pointer
as is passed into iterate_getsam21pwnam(char *name)

so you can image what happens next..
im going to see what happens if i just remove this pstrcpy() 
and see if there are any adverse effects.
