I have a few users who have ID's in NT domain and AD that contain apostrophes, such as 
O'Neill (fo'neill) , and O'Toole (go'toole).  I've been trying to give them access to 
shares, but Samba doesn't
seem to like this very much.

I've been able to set up the ID's in our LDAP server so file ownership works, but 
according to the log messages, Samba DOMAIN authentication seems to substitute an 
underscore (go_toole) for the
apostrophe when sending the request to AD. Of course, AD comes back with 
NT_STATUS_NO_SUCH_USER.

NT/2K servers seem to have supported this, which is why the ID's exist here in the 
first place.  Is this a Samba restriction?  Is there a way around it?
