Your life will be 10x easier if you use encrypted passwords.  It does
_nothing_ as far as security, but stupid NT-based Windows clients feel
"more secure" so they cache the username/password combos.

They "sell" software "like a book" so they can sell it en masse
without a written agreement.  But if you want to "transfer" it,
they say it's not "like a book" but "licensed" under agreement.
