good, because they won't exist!

eek, not really.  basically, that a system will exist to provide full
"User Manager for Domains" capability, providing a mapping between NT
users, groups and aliases to unix users and groups.  where unix is lacking
in functionality and basic concepts that NT supports, samba will fill in
the missing gaps.  with respect to users and groups (for USRMGR.EXE
support) this will be provided by a "password database API" and a
"group/aliases database API".
