Yes.
(a)
Our QUERYFORPDC response in nmbd/nmbd_processlogon.c is *badly* broken.
As I remember part of it is misaligned, and I think our criteria for including
the extra information is incorrect.
(b)
We tend to regurgitate the ntversion we are given. Even blind Freddie
can see that we are not a Win2k domain controller, and Win2k doesn't buy it
either. ntversion should be hardcoded everywhere (= 1 I think).
(c)
We need to send an RPC fault on invalid opcode.
That should be just about it to get Win2k to join a Samba domain. If anyone
feels like fixing any of this then please do; I won't be available in this
universe until mid next week.
