1.9.18alpha3 and 1.9.18alpha4

[Luke Kenneth Casson Leighton]

just to let you all know: the #ifdef NTDOMAIN code in 1.9.18alpha3 is 
stuffed: the offsets for the "opnum" in the RPC_HDR decoding and creation 
are wrong, so it thinks all RPC commands are LSA_CLOSEs.  oops.

this is fixed in the minor 1.9.18alpha4 release.

if you are following the NTDOMAIN code, please always check the main 
samba distribution location samba.anu.edu.au/pub/samba/alpha or get the 
latest using public cvs access (see andrew's message and instructions).


there are still some alignment issues with odd/even string lengths to
resolve. 

certain combinations of domain name, pdc name, user name and workstation
name (i don't think it's user name) are causing login failures, once
you've successfully joined a domain. 

either that, or the long-term session key is generated differently for 
odd and even length machine passwords...

either way, if you can't get a login, try renaming things.  i had a 
failed login with the domain "CB1", username "lkcl", server "monarch", 
workstation "pavlov", but successful with domain "TEST" (the rest unchanged).

i can't check this properly yet, because i can't generate Net Monitor .CAP
files of NT server -> NT workstation logins at the moment.  some help with
this would be appreciated (a matrix of 16 logins is needed, with domain
"test"/"test2", workstation "wksta"/"wksta2", server "ntsrv"/"ntsrv2",
username "user"/"user2") and .CAP files from each.

i know, that's 16 sodding NT workstation reboots and two NT server
reboots, just because microsoft can't get their act together.
