connections.tdb not initialised in 2.2.alpha1

[Edward King]

Thanks for the help -- I've started searching through the code.  After
running 2.2.alpha1 for a day now, there still is no connections.tdb (and
I've opened files, mounted shares, etc.)

The /var/lock/samba.d directory only contains the following:

-rw-r--r--   1 root     root          219 Dec  7 09:52 browse.dat
-rwxrwxrwx   1 root     root          800 Dec  6 19:12 STATUS..LCK
-rw-r--r--   1 root     root           20 Dec  6 18:03 nmbd.pid
-rw-r--r--   1 root     root           20 Dec  6 18:03 smbd.pid

Should there be other tdb files here?  What is the implication of them not
being present -- the system has been running and files are being accessed.

Thanks!
