[Samba] VARIABLE SUBSTITUTIONS with LDAP

Hi everyone,

I would like to understand why "variable substitutions" don't expand 
from ldap anymore.
Jerry Carter answered me that it is due to conflicts with client side 
environnement variable.
But these substitutions are done on the server side, so what's the 
problem with client side ???
It was a great feature, i don't know why a so practical thing has been 
removed.
It would be also nice to specify in the smb.conf.man in the "variable 
substitution" chapter.

cheers, eric
