samba - Sep 2000 - NT Domain Login test

I read referenc to the rpcclient in a samba book that can performa NT Domain
login test.  Is this available or is there another way that I can use this
test in a script?  I want to have a user enter a username and password and
then check to make sure that is a valid username and paaword on the NT
Domain.  ANy suggestions.  I will be doing it from a tcl script.

The version of rpcclient is the SAMBA_TNG development branch
does support this.  The version released (and the improved 
version to be released with 2.2.0) does not.  Eventually
the release version will have all the capabilities of the
TNG version.
