Head branch without encrypted passwords

	I stumbled across this while trying to setup the head branch with dual personalities,
one personality acting as a PDC, and the other personality working with plain text passwords.
When I connect to the PDC personality, everything works fine.  When I connect to the "plain 
text" personality, it won't properly autheniticate my login.  This same dual personality setup
works fine with 2.0.4b.

	I'm running on Solaris 2.5.1, using the head branch from 5 minutes ago.  The machine is 
Windows NT 4.0, with Service Pack 3 installed.  The machine is currently not a part of any domain.  

	I have successfully connected to the plain text personality using Windows 98, so it 
does seem to be something specific with NT...  

	Here is the log file of the machine trying to connect to the plain text personality:
