samba - Sep 2001 - MACHINE.SID and 2.2.x

Hi,

is there a need for "MACHINE.SID" anymore or is this information
stored together
with the former .mac file stuff in "secrets.tdb" ?
I only found this in "source/passdb/passdb.c"

/****************************************************************************
 Generate the global machine sid. Look for the MACHINE.SID file first, if
 not found then look in smb.conf and use it to create the MACHINE.SID file.
 Note this function will be replaced soon. JRA.
****************************************************************************/

BOOL pdb_generate_sam_sid(void)
{
..

Thanks in advance
	Uwe
