Off-topic rant:
Okay, I wasn't going to nit-pick, but this persists.

Actually, in the sentence "Can/Should Samba fix NT?", "fix" is
verb acting on the direct object "NT".  Therefore, you are
"fixing" the product, not a problem (in that usage, at least).

Given that, Samba is not a "fix" for NT.  It is a possible
replacement for it.  If anyone would like to say "Samba can fix
various problems caused by or inherent in NT", they may do so.

Sheesh.
