[Samba] Samba 2.2.2 as a PDC for XP logins

In my case, I had to apply the registry hack PLUS change the following 
Local Security Settings (Start -> All Programs -> Administrative Tools -> 
Local Security Settings):

Domain member: Digitally encrypt or sign secure channel data --> disabled
Domain member: Disable machine account password changes --> disabled
Domain member: Require strong (Windows 2000 or later) session key --> 
disabled

I monkeyed with multiple options of the above four options, and the only 
way I could get XP to login to my Samba PDC was the above combo.

Best,
/tom
