hi*&

Samba has troubles with joining to NT PDC, that has some scope id because:
	1. smbpasswd does not know anything about scope id and you haven't
any chance to join into NT PDC.
	2. also many utils like smbmount doesn't know scope id
	3. In smbclient you can specify scope id, but you should remember
it and etc. It's not so usable.

I'm asked about these problems in samba mailing lists w/o any success.

What this patch change?

	1. New parameter in smb.conf: scope id
		Example:
		 scope id = yourscopeid

	2. Added -C parameter to smbpasswd with which you can specify
		scope id.
