First of all, this would have to be: Whenever I tried to open a SamDB
connection to our PDC using wrong credentials. Since the credentials
should be user-configurable in the end, it is vital that no
segmentation fault occurs because of, e.g. a typo in the password...

Sorry, if this lead to some confusion.

The product, btw., will be an Active Directory adapter for the Zope3
web framework. Since this runs as a service, it is even more essential
to have a stable backend...

It's attached.

Best,
