Quantum Snap Server and Samba NT Domain

I've been running our Samba as the PDC on it's own NT domain for over a
year.  This has worked well for authenticating Win95 boxes and handling
shares. We are now moving some of our shares to a Quantum Snap Server 4100
which supports NT Domain Security, but I can't get it to work correctly.

It wants to use a regular username/password to list the users/groups
available on the server.  It DOES seem to authenticate correctly against
the Samba server, BUT in order to administer the access list to the Shares
on the Snap server it requires that it downloads the list of usernames
from the PDC.

I assume that if it let me type in the usernames myself, that it would
work correctly, but it is written so that it will only use the list from
the PDC.

1. Does Samba have the ability to send this username/group
list?  (I'm guessing not.)

2. Anyone else out there doing this with any success?

Samba Server:
Samba 2.0.7
DG/UX 4.2mu05 (Data General)
