[Samba] Virtual samba servers possible with samba 2.2.x ?
When using samba 2.0.x series of software, I often configured samba to look like serveral virtual machines in the network neighbourhood by using the "config file = /usr/local/samba/lib/smb.conf.%L" directive in the configuration file. Each of the virtual samba machines had their own secrets file so they could all connect to a real NT PDC for user authentication. With the advent of the samba 2.2.x series this does not seem possible. If I try and configure three virutal servers on a machine, the last netbios name to join the domain (last one to write to the secrets.tdb file) is the only one that works with domain authentication. Is there a way with 2.2.x to get this virtual samba server configuration to work? (without having multiple binaries compiled with different private directory paths...)
