I was indeed referring to the usershare functions. The hooks will go in 
where the usershare functions are currently called at server end.

I think the registry db interface allows sufficient level of abstraction 
for me to not really worry about the backend initially. 
However having the libelektra db in the samba tree would be very much 
helpful. Are there any plans for the SoC libelektra code getting into the 
main tree ?
