broken trusted domain? Why?

Hi, All:

    When trying to connect to the trusted domain, samba tries to fetch machine account for trusted domain, but that machine account never exists in secrets.tdb.

    does it mean that when we join the primary domain, we should join the trusted domain at the same time?

    git-blame shows:

    88a04cf1 (Michael Adam                         2007-12-17 23:24:36 +0100  595) {
88a04cf1 (Michael Adam                         2007-12-17 23:24:36 +0100  596)  const char *acco
unt_name;
88a04cf1 (Michael Adam                         2007-12-17 23:24:36 +0100  597)
88a04cf1 (Michael Adam                         2007-12-17 23:24:36 +0100  598)  if (!get_trust_p
w_clear(domain->name, machine_password,
88a04cf1 (Michael Adam                         2007-12-17 23:24:36 +0100  599)
        &account_name, NULL))

get_trust_pw_clear() exists both in cm_prepare_connection() and cm_connect_sam().... 

@Michael: Could please explain the reason of doing this?

Thanks!

Best
