That's weird.  For ages, this was referred to in samba as the 'munged
dialback field', because (from memory) the first part was meant to
contain the phone number to call back for old-style modem-callback
security.  I take it that this does not exist any more?

For reference, we finally got rid of the field in this commit:
http://www.mail-archive.com/samba-...@lists.samba.org/msg49021.html

UNISTR2 uni_munged_dial ; /* munged path name and dial-back tel no */

Where the field after 'comment' on SAM_USER_INFO_23 became 'parameters'
from the IDL.

This 'parameters' maps to userParameter in LDAP.
