You may, eventually, need the following DOS file (i.e., with CR/LF
(0x0d0a) line terminators) to authenticate against Samba as a domain
controller, should you go that far:


REGEDIT4

;
; This registry key (gathered from the Samba-tng lists) is needed
; for a Windows XP client to join and logon to a Samba domain
;

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\netlogon\parameters]
"RequireSignOrSeal"=dword:00000000
