yeah, i keep asking myself about this, too. i'm really not sure what to
do about this, yet.

i don't think so, either.

yes. that _is_ the implementation of microsoft's LSA!!!
the LSA _is_ a redirector.
in other words, you plug in a new lsarpcd and you have an NT5-based LSA.
or, you plug in a netware-based lsarpcd.
in each case, you don't _need_ samrd any more because you're not running a
SAM-based system.
lsarpcd, strictly speaking, should be implemented in terms of samr_xx()
client-side calls.
