[Samba] Re: Unable to modify SID for "administrator" (bug?)

[Steve A]

I noticed I hadn't compiled in Winbind.  So, I removed everything, compiled 
with Winbind and all seems ok now.  It also appears you don't have to set 
the RID of the administrator account.

Would the lack of Winbind explain my problems?

Cheers,
Steve :)
