I think it shouldn't be always reloaded. I think we shold only reload if the 
connecting user is different to the current user. However I haven't tested it.

        if (get_current_vuid(conn) != vuid) {
            reload_services(sconn, conn_snum_used, true);
        }

If you contribute code under your own personal copyright then everything is 
fine.

If you're company doesn't allow that you need to sign the Certificate of 
Origin.
