[Samba] Identically named users and groups

[Michael Gasch]

first, thx volker!

>> consider this case:

>> DOMAIN\test is a user and a group (don´t ask why ;) )
>> members of the group DOMAIN\test would never be able to logon to this

well, this was kind of mind game:
i have a samba PDC with a group test and a user test. this works fine 
for the DC (tested). how would samba on a member solve this issue, if 
smbclient connects (no windows involved)?
