I wish I did, Craig seems to have the magic touch.  I have about 150 
computers + users and transfered that over to one of my Samba computers 
in a test environment.  I have 4 computers connected to  it there, 2 
which came from the original NT Domain and 1 which I connected as BDC  
and I have another which I'm going to connect as a domain member 
server.  So far I haven't gone 2 days without it locking up.  I just 
updated to openldap 2.2.13-4 last night and if that locks up I'll gather 
all the configuration files and post them and hope somebody sees 
something I did wrong.
