SYSKEY2. Request For Comments

[Greg Dickie]

Let me just stick in my 2 cents please. I have no idea whether SYSKEY is a good
thing in samba or not but in general I find the work that Luke is doing to be
pretty good stuff. The DC code, the rpcclient code, the DSO break -up, it's all
excellent. Note that I'm NOT saying what all the other guys are doing is not
great but from my point-of-view at the moment, the TNG branch has the most
activity and the most new features. If he wants to go off on a tangent and play
with SYSKEY then "why not".

again just my $0.02,
Greg
