Unable to authenticate users after Samba update

[CMH]

I installed the fix/patch/update that Laurent graciously  created and it 
is working well.

# /opt/csw/sbin/smbd -V
Version 3.6.25
# uname -a
SunOS 5.10 Generic_142900-13 sun4v sparc SUNW,SPARC-Enterprise-T5220


yes I know how far out of patch'ing it is.  A long story I will tell you 
off list if interested.
