  It gets better.

  For one, instead of rebooting, you can just do a

        /etc/rc.d/init.d/smb restart

command to shutdown and restart Samba (must be done as root).

  For another, you can actually run multiple copies of Samba on one machine,
each a member of a different domain.  The details I am not sure about, but it
is covered in the documentation.

  Cheers!
