USRMGR in W95 since 1998-10-18

[Michael Stockman]

Hello,

What has happened to NMBD after 1998-10-18? In all CVS updates after
that usrmgr.exe in W95 has reported that it is unable to find a domain
controller for the samba controlled domain. The apparent action is
this:

1. nmbd receives a packet to "\MAILSLOT\NET\NETLOGON", code = 7
2. nmbd decides that it is a GETDC request and reports EMIL domain
PGMT 0xc ntversion=0 lm_nt token=0 lm_20 token=0, there is a dump of
the response at the bottom.
3. nmbd sends that packet to "\MAILSLOT\NET\GETDC000"
4. usrmgr doesn't seem to get that and tries again (a couple of times,
then gives in) => goto 1.

Everything seems to be the same except for the response packet (I've
go the old one at the bottom too).

Best regards

The new packet looks like this:
[00]  0C 00 45 4D 49 4C 00 00 45 00 4D 00 49 00 4C 00
"..EMIL..E.M.I.L."
[10]  00 00 50 00 47 00 4D 00 54 00 00 00 00 00 00 00
"..P.G.M.T......."
[20]  00 00 00 00  "...."

The old packet looked like this:
[00]  0C 00 45 4D 49 4C 00  "..EMIL."

Note: EMIL is my samba server and PGMT is my domain.
