Description Gerald (Jerry) Carter (dead mail address) 2003-08-29 09:36:52 UTC 
If you define a realm in smb.conf but not a workgroup, then net ads join
fails to find a DC (in most cases).  reported by Axel Suppantschitsch

Comment 1 Gerald (Jerry) Carter (dead mail address) 2003-09-04 16:02:10 UTC 
fixed by always using lp_realm() from smb.conf.

originally reported against one of the 3.0.0rc[1-4] releases.
Cleaning up non-production versions.

sorry for the same, cleaning up the database to prevent unecessary reopens of bugs.
