Description of Problem:
Latest Rawhide Samba SRPMS (I looked at version 2.0.8-0.7.1) include a
patch to set pam credentials.  However, it suffers a fatal flaw.  It
presumes that there is one user per smbd, unfortunetly this is not how
samba operates.  One smbd can server multiple real and guest users,
particuarly as used by Win2k Terminal Server.

I have marked this as 'security' becouse this could (if I understand the
patch infered its behaviour correctly) allow one user (including guest) to
use the authentication tokons of another user served by the same smbd.

This is mitigated however by the fact that plaintext authentication would
be required for this to occur.

In any case, the first user to exit would end the pam session, rendering
the code useless.

The correct way to do this is to attach the pamh to a user's vuid, and to
pass that to the relevent functions as required.  This however is a more
significat change, but one I intend to look at at some time.

(As a matter of note, Samba 2.2 now no longer uses any global variables in
respect to PAM - but when it did their vaule was not kept between
authentication calls in any case).

At least this is my understanding, I would be happy to be proved wrong.
