domain socket by a UDP/TCP socket. Did anyone try/think of this ?=20

The reason is I want to run samba in a cluster and have nmbd running in
one node and smbd's running in multiple other nodes, using the nmbd for
the registration/lookup functions, and also for the winbind way of
authenticating users.

Has anybody done this ?=20
