tom,

you should be using a root account for the domain in the network control
panel, not smbpasswd -a -m tompc$ or createuser tompc$.


only use createuser tompc$ with the -j DOMAINNAME option, and only _after_
you have actually joined tompc$ to the domain, and _only_ as a security
measure due to microsoft using an insecure trust account password.

lars, please could you update the FAQ to reflect this.

thx for the detailed report, tom,

luke
