Samba - NetBios Alias

[Pawel Worach]

Hi.

I have found some strange behavior with (i think) netbios
aliases. I started Server Manager and selected properties
for the server alias (SAJD-SRV01), and then Windows NT
says that the password is incorrect, byt it works for the "real" name of
the server.

That i noticed in the host log is that samba kicks me out and closes
all connections. And one more thing is that is says that user
"administrator" does not exist, but it does and the username level
is set to 1 so it should get it if I log in as Admin... or dMin...

All computers (even the alias) are members of the
domain "SAJD-DOMA" and all of them have lines in /etc/passwd and 
/usr/lib/samba/private/smbpasswd, is this a bug of a feature :)

Sambaversion: CVS as of 1999-07-16 (2.1.0-prealpha) built with
gcc 2.3.2.3 on Linux/x86 2.3.10 (Slackware).
