LDAP PDC and 100% pure TNG tested

[Luke Kenneth Casson Leighton]

ignacio,

i've been trying to code this up in smbpasswd, but the code is unfamiliar
to me.

for now, use rpcclient to do the same job.  you _must_ have a trust
acccount for the PDC, despite what smbpasswd thinks.

unix-root-user% rpcclient -S . -U root%rootpassword -l log
[root at .$] lsaquery
...
...
[root at .$] createuser sambaserver$ -j
created user: OK
joined domain: OK

you _may_ find that the SAM account for sambaserver$ is disabled, and you
_may_ have to edit the SAM account manually and activate it.  i will be
tracking this down, later (it's related to a bug i found in NT and i had
to deactivate some code to change ACB bits).

an account is disabled if the ACB bits are:[WD      ].  remove the D:
replace it with a space do NOT shorten the ACB bits field, it MUST be
exactly 14 bytes long (or whatever).
