[Samba] Setting Separate File server from Samba PDC

[Vizitiu, Ciprian]

If I were you I'd get the sources and see if the patch is in there. I
haven't tested the latest samba from RH, right now I run 2.2.8 from
samba.org.

I hope you  know that if you're desperate you can to that too on RH, samba
from samba.org can be made .rpm! That is the tgz from the site has a .spec
in it. It's just that you get only a samba.rpm and not all the sepparate
components that RedHat does. I guess that's what --nodeps and --forced were
given for as rpm options... :-s
