Win2K problem looking up SIDs to names.

[Mayers, P J]

Can we take it from that remark that code *is currently* being ported from
the TNG to the HEAD branch?

Exactly *what* is moving over? (The split daemon architechture I'm
particularly interested in, as it leads directly to some very neat stuff).

Cheers,
Phil (a currently satisfied, but anxious user :o)

Thanks for that. I'll look in the tng codebase and merge in that
fix asap for 2.0.7 and HEAD.

Luke, HEAD is slowly *becoming* TNG, it just takes a while
as the code is moving across as it gets reviewed. This takes
a lot of effort, don't get disheatened.
