I agree with Jean-Francois, and after a phone call
with Luke, so does he :-). I have removed the extraneous
stuff from struct smb_passwd (harumph, having fields
labelled 'unknown' in a structure is *not* a good
idea :-). Luke is going to code up an extra structure
he needs for this stuff and have a conversion function
(that way, the 90% of the Samba code that doesn't care
what an NT password entry looks like still doesn't
have to :-).
