Hi

The patch will make a difference - otherwise there is a reg hack somewhere 
for it.  I think it is included in the source for samba under docs.  I have 
also just recently implemented samba as a pdc with a mix of win2k, win98 
and xp machines - all is working fine, but there are a few tricks with xp

Cheers
Shaun
