Andrew, This 96 bytes unused data is not currently used by Terminal Service. The following is the update to the documentation:
UnusedData (96 bytes): A 96 byte array of unused data. This array is filled with the ASCII character for space (0x20). Thanks!

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/[email protected]/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.
