[Luke Kenneth Casson Leighton]

tim,

you are exporting private/smbpasswd over a network???? in other words, you
are sending user's cleartext-equivalent nt and lm password hashes over a
network, in the clear????

bad idea.

yes, we have heard of NFS locking problems on /usr/local/samba/ in the
past (2 years ago).
