Luke, this is the unicode change you made to GETDC
in nmbd. Can you (or maybe Gerald?) check that the 
change you made in the 2.0 stream still allows Win95/98
machines to work correctly with Samba set up as a Win95
"logon server", not as a PDC.

It is essential we don't ship 2.0 with this feature
broken as this is what most sites use to serve logon
scripts etc.

Cheers,
