[Samba] Using WINBIND and the latest samba 3

[Gabriel Matthews]

Ahh... son of a biscuit... I can't believe that THAT has been my
problem... AHH!!!!! friggin frickle frackle....

Okay.. thanks very much for your help..  I  REALLY REALLY appreciate it..
:)

In a side issue, does anyone know why you have to make this symlink for
this to work?  Would it hurt anything to make, as part of a future
release, a little bit of code to include that in the installation
procedure, or is there a specific reason that it's left out?

Thanks again for your help!! Now I can smile :-)
