samba - May 2001 - 2.2.0 pass thru validation

I installed 2.2.0 and started having problems with users getting verified
(I'm using security=domain)

When a user is logged into the domain there's no problem.  The user is
validated as DOMAIN/USER.
However, when they login to their local machine the samba server tries only to
veryify MACH/USER on the domain controller.

Shouldn't it then fall-thru to DOMAIN/USER if MACH/USER fails?

I changed password.c to use our domain name instead of the passed-in client
domain name.
I'm sure that it just needs another call after trying MACH/USER to then try
DOMAIN/USER but I couldn't quite figure out which variable held the domain
name.

This is what the client passes to it.

I don't know.  This kind of sounds like a reasonable change.
Is this what an NT PDC does?  I seem to remember so.
What does everyone else think?
