[Samba] Authentication problems Still

[Con Harte]

Hi Herb.  That patch has fixed it.

I'm quite surprised I hadn't heard about the problem already,
although after the end of the NTDOM list I didn't immediately
join the main Samba list, probably missed all pertinent discussions.

Thanks again,

Con Harte.
