Wow, alot happens around this place even over a holiday weekend.  :o)

Gordon, replacing the samba root user with admin is a great idea but I'm
wondering if we aren't cutting our selves off at the knees to some extent.
For example, lets say that the Samba team figures out Active Directory
participation and fires out a new release.
Average Joe SME users gets really excited because this is the release he has
been waiting for and installs the new RPM.  Does this "break" his setup?

Could the changes to mainstream samba be "compiled" into some type of
template/script combination that is run by the admin after a new Samba RPM
is installed?

Regards,

Greg Zartman
