Did X lockup on you?  I've seen that in VMware-server but
not on real hardware.

There's no setup.  The uid/gid values are hashed from the
domain SID fo rthe user/group.  The home directory and login
shell are obtained from the template homedir/shell parameters
from /etc/samba/lwiauthd.conf.

I should be fine.  The LW Open code is branched from our
Enterprise code base which has pretty extensive platform support.
The mono bits will have problems since RHEL doesn't include
mono at IIRC.  We have to jump though some hoops to make that
work in the commericial product.
