it provides a SAM database interface.  Server accounts Manager.

if you are configured with "encrypt passwords = no", which you are not,
you don't need it.

you are using domain logons = yes, therefore you need "enc pw = yes",
therefore you need samrd.

please follow debug reporting instructions in the samba_tng faq.  see
source/README.  please send report, but i'd prefer it if you'd do a cvs
update and recompile, first, i've fixed a lot of stuff.

thx!
