SessionSetup_and_X with VC=0

I was following an earlier thread "Samba doesn't free network resource
with XP clients", and in investigating the SessionSetup_and_X handling I
have a couple of questions. (I only looked at 2.2.7a (not 3.0))
1) It appears that in reply_sesssetup_and_X(), the VC is in essence
ignored. When I look at an ethereal trace of browsing from a W2k
workstation, many SessionSetups are transacted for user anonymous, and
*new* uids are being issued. Is not reclaiming users by tracking VCs
chewing up pdb entries? Or is the uid simply being advanced without
*real* resource allocation for the guest user?
2) Is it possible to have multiple child smbds servicing one W2k
workstation? If so, under what conditions? I can only get it to use
the same negotiated session key over and over again.
Thanks,
Peter Hurley
