Well, I guess so.  We've decided to go back to 1.9.16p11 because of the
smbd's not exiting in 1.9.17aplha5.  Anyways, with 1.9.16p11, we've
had to add Simeon Walker's NIS patches and I've noticed that in
the logs, Samba will connect the user to \\%L\HOMES.  Hmmm.  How can I
fix this properly in ipc.c?
